Poetry by Barbara Gail Montero
We know that if spacetime curved
and Nietzsche and Woolf were to meet,
they would dance.
What more could a philosopher want
than to be a good dancer?
An Ideal, as well as an art.
Profound knowledge,
Dancing, shaking,
All alive, but controlled.
If only God had learned it better.
