Dali Tango

It’s Dali-esque

This bitter- sweet

This dark and light

Arresting and frivolous

These flourishing trills

These moods of dark foreboding

****

It’s Dali-esque

This jagged music

This crazy carnival

With violin aching

Its painful portent

****
The piano flourishes

The crescendos with

Descending notes

Increasing tension

A slow fire

The gabble of the whirligig

****

Against this structure

The dancers move

A stolen glance

A back and forth

Crisp and deliberate

sensuous and fluid

An axis of equilibrium

A disassociated paradox

****
A pause, an intention

A change of direction

Embrace and release

Embrace and release

Spaces built and reconstructed

With disciplined lines

These disciplined lives

****

This parody, this comedy, this tragedy

This man, This woman This tango

Oh……….……………Dali……
