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 190 degrees on the plane.
Vitruvian
Man without Saint Andrew…!
The
cross skewered, compressed to the horizon,
And
your verticality keeping you forever in suspension.
