The Stage

And finally ! its all done .. it’s the time for the journey home at the end of a days work.
A crowd of nobodys drags itself to towards their heath for rest and drink.I lose myself in the daily exodus …drained …. hungry..thirsty.. clawing my way towards an inviting bed.

And along the way shines a light.

The courtyard of a school - lit up. A group of high school students.. still in uniform.
In a formation.. an audio player churns out the music for their composition…

United in purpose ..determined in their will … they sway their bodies to the rhythm

The end of another day ….no not yet… the beginning of a night ? No not yet ..it aint the time to rest…. But their dreams hold them in their trance…driven by their passion they pour their collective souls into their performance….

Ah … another choreography competition .. we manage a smile …

as I permit myself a skip hop in the dry procession towards the train terminal…
as I taste the long forgotten fruit under the streetlight ….
the magic takes me far away to another stage ...another crowd

Iam back under the lights …
