What the Body Remembers
The body remembers the moves, the connection. The body does not think about what to do; it comes automatically, unconsciously, in time to the music. The body falls into the same patterns as before, near effortlessly, perhaps a little awkward because of the alcohol, but surprisingly well. As if powered by some other consciousness separate from your own. And that thrill of moving to music (so clear, so dear [astonishing, yes!] in one's mind) is almost enough to wash away the accumulated ... luggage, the heaviness ... of previous years. Smiles from friends. Dances with more. Chats with Jesse, cozy, in the (cat's) corner ... almost, almost enough ... Perhaps just enough, for now, to let me venture forth once again. And soon.
