The Dancing Girl In the Clouds

On the beach
she is spinning in circles
her arms held open

A dog
nuzzles into her warmth,
her scent

In West Kennet
a wall disappears
and the face appears
from the shadow
once again
then retreats

The dog is transfixed,
running through snow
towards her

Loyalty is the moon
to him,
bleeding with desire

Though she dances,
the clocks tick on
with soul music

Now as always
too sudden
too soon
