Parchment

  for rebeca & Emily, during a movement exercise,
    about touch creating a cycle of care between dancers

I am the parchment upon which you write.

I am the poem you write upon the parchment.

I am the voice that reads the poem.

I am the ears that hear the voice.

I am the eyes that smile upon hearing.

I am the hand that is guided by the eyes.

I am the fingers of the hand that writes upon the parchment.

I am the parchment upon which you write.
