grandma

bh
grandma sees me dancing
hair twirling
twisting
legs moving all over
grandma
it is all over
and the curtains come down
but i dont stop twirling
head bent
knees knocking
smiling
twirling
and
twirling into
a different
world
where they
dont just wait
they knock
where they not only knock
they answer
and answer
around and around
to nowhere
to space
to infinity
and beyong
for all the youthlings
gathered around
with smiling eyes
the door opens
the shuffling
shoes sticky
to the floor
the door opens and is locked
the next one opens and the handle is complicated
the smoke
the distress
you will relieve
tonight again
around
and around the music blares
compliments my dress
i am beaten
beat me
black and blue
