(Choreo-poem in Three Voices)
1st Voice:
We are the stars of ebony nights
Measuring dark plenitudes
In sparks and liquid laughters
2nd Voice:
We are the elephant
No idle feast for
The greed of a single eye
3rd Voice:
We are the fire on the mountain
Who dare blight our blaze
With a fickle shower?
(Pause)
2nd Voice:
For the beauty of the antelope
Is the eloquence of its leaps
3rd Voice:
The beauty of the peacock
Is the pride of its feathers
1st Voice:
The glory of the parrot
Is the fire in its tail
(Pause)
2nd Voice:
Through silent spaces
And clouds heavy with reticent rains
3rd Voice:
Through footless mountains
And valleys redolent with rainbow petals
1st Voice:
Through puzzling croooossssrrroooaddddssss
Stubborn darings and knotty options
