Dance Studio
Slow rhythmic music swirling over my head
Quietly blended with gentle footsteps occasionally
Followed by a thump against the ground
Music bending to the flow of movement
Gracefully switching from high to low
Rocking back and forth
Music is loud, angry, beating through, pulsing
Like an energy driven beast
Metal scraping, slamming against wood
Music gets loud, matching the steady tapping
Then swishing through the air comes slender legs
Silent murmuring, trying not to be heard,
Then booming voices commanding silence,
Yet with a hint of amusement
Laughter beautiful, all ages in a still room
Where the only noise is the occasional buzz of a phone
Trickling water pouring from a plastic bottle
Crinkling of plastic wrappers
Bobby pins clink as the hit the floor
Music starts back up, panting through the fast
Edgy beats, afterwards thuds as
Tired bodies crash against the floor
Gasps of shock and amazement slice through the silence rising
Applause, applause rising in tempo and volume
Clapping, clapping
Now we take a bow
