Literally in the Idiom...!


 


                                                                                 

Literally in the Idiom

 

For

Carolina

 

Literally in the idiom, being on Time !

Your left leg flung out to one side of you,

At quarter to, while the right thrown out in extensa

At three! There you are then - 3 O’Clock!

 

Tick tock…! Your torso swings then like a pendulum,

Oscillating back and forth to the rhythm.

At maximum extension, an Aristotelian notion;

To be living to the maximum of your potential.

 

Le grand écarté…the great extension… !

To be out, literally, on a limb.

Both legs reaching 180 degrees on the plane.

 

Vitruvian Man without Saint Andrew…!

The cross skewered, compressed to the horizon,

And your verticality keeping you forever in suspension.
