For today’s prompt,write a dance poem. The poem can be about the process of dancing or
just somehow incorporate or reference dancing in the poem. There are
so many styles of dance out there and even more occasions for
dancing: school dances, daddy-daughter dances, wedding dances, people
who dance when they are happy, people who dance when they are sad,
people who dance in large groups, and those who dance alone. And, of
course, there are so who just won’t dance for anything.
Open Casket
She would have loved
this,
dancing without
repression,
the music loud and
rhythmic
bass pounding and the
air
hot and sticky with
sweat.
Half-naked women,
shirtless
men,latinesque beats
against a candlelit
darkness;
whirling away the hour
until her coffin slides
into the fire.
