Movement Poetics #1

Silence

Sometimes movement is a way to fill the silence.

What if there is silence both in the body and in the words?

Akward.

The feeling that everything is exposed.

In silence.

You don’t claim for something,

you don’t try for something,

you don’t explain something

You don’t try to convince, to share, to suggest, to impress, to prove, to compare, to analyze, organize,

control,

You are just there

next to each other or

opposite to each other

face to face,

back to back,

holding hands

or none of them.

Sharing the silence.

Comprehending the nothingness

while delving into the

preciousness of being here and now

together
