The simplest acts can be puzzling. When reasons for the acts are unstated, we impute significant emotion to them. "How ordinary," we sense, "is the unspeakable." 		01.05:055

TRINA STOLEC
Ballet

Tiny ballerina
in ceramic pink tutu
dances a circle
in her crystal/ice world.
Give a little shake,
she dances in snow.
Porcelain toe shoes
anchored to prevent slides.
Tin music plays
as her tiny world
inches near the edge
of a hickory universe.
She pirouettes
to metallic notes;
her tiny sphere
slips over the edge.

Tiny ballerina
in ceramic pink tutu
dances a circle.
Her snow-globe world
explodes.
She pirouettes
to hold herself
together.
