Johnny Weir


Your blades cut me slice my
Aesthetic transforming motion into
Image spinning gliding making arcs
As your hands spread fingers of feeling
Into my heart

You reach in gestures of pure grace
Gliding like a heron in ecstasy
Over the ice  black Gothic shape  over the 
White ground
Passion coming to rest on your knee


You are Nijinsky
You are abandon eroticism joy
Smiling through tears as you 
Leap through all the space between us
A Leap of faith in your own being

Through dance through skating
Your figure becomes the metaphysics
Of desire a form of love
Transcending  time  space and body
A Rhythm of Olympian power

Jack Miller 2-14-10
