Kimono

I am dancing;
near naked in a long, butter yellow kimono;
silk breath against my skin feeling more like an aura than solid material.
I dance slowly, weightlessly, like I'm in space or water.
I'm alone in my dance, and quite content to be so.
There is comfort and gentleness in this solitary state.
Just me and my shadow
lit by a single candle behind a goldenpink boudoir screen.
