Pakistan: the dancing girl of Mohenjo-Daro
she lifts her head,
confident that her dance
will surpass
acceptability. she
is perfect in her craft,
although she seems very young
as I see her, a figure
cast in bronze,
shimmering with sound
from the bangles on her arms,
poised to dance,
and I know, in that city
without walls,
whose name is vanished
into the mound of river mud
it was buried under, she
knew her worth.
and it was great.
