A Good Little Girls Zine

Trumpet meet Human

the trumpet sounds--high 
like a solo bird crossing the sky
the notes float out arching in the air
urging you to move
heads slowly turn 
instrument acknowledging listener
out of soft clouds
they rise
slow moving at first
then fast pounding the earth with rhythmic
Jazz squares
slow, fast
slow, fast
marking it
making music with their limbs
-improvisational meeting 
blending,
learning.
each solo 
a story 
a truth
an instance
dancer and musician
the intuitive dialogue.
