Girl Dancing

She danced across the floor
the way a cloud of dust twists itself into a cyclone,
briefly swirling before melting away.

Her hips moved rhythmically,
throbbing.

Her thin hands, like thawing icicles,
massaged the air while she sang softly.
There was no music, only what she heard in her head.
Watching her,
I listened.
