OTHERNESS
Dance First, Think Later
The dance is alive in the apartment.
Enter the door and join the revelry,
be the reveler.
Be forever thinking, and lose yourself.
Dance first, think later.
Lift your heart, if you want to be lifted.
Enter the opening. Pass through the door.
Enough with being a robot,
welcome the humanity that surrounds you.
During the day, your soul sleeps.
Do not accept drowsiness.
Press your body into the crowd.
Feel your connection to others.
You complain, 'I am not me, they are not me.'
Where is the line?
Find your feet under you.
Know they will hold you up.
When do you leave your home
without your coat?
Keep your eyes open.
Let your sight delight you.
Move forever with your spirit
in concert with truth.
