i was a balance beam
 

i was a balance beam champion in the state
of New York
at ankle-level i liked
winning tempo! tempo!
graceful posture in fluid motion okay
great so i have no interest
in perfection i have nothing not
flowing water should rotate
like i love stride-length
nonsomersaulting moves
leaping 90 degrees master
sureness in walking so
leaning like a wave in water
i put my hands by my sides like so
i put my right foot in front of my left like
so what i mean is i love nonsomersaulting
aerial skills holding tight go
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhsilence
silence i love the silence mind
your toes

oncoming for-upward throw support
leg! the rapid counterclockwise arm goes
static pose then the flexion
of appropriate timing push not
slightly hollowed shapes are desirable
characteristics of takeoff bones
and shoulders tryeeeeeeeeee
not to slip in turn i’d do
anything for you i don’t want you
i don’t want you to see me like
this arabesque flex ahead of the impact
airborne i hold the move
on and over i go like i can’t any
