Everyone Around Me Dancing

Gia Margaret

Everyone around me is dancing

but I am in the background static.

Closer to the ground, the planet.

Equilibrium.

 

Everyone around me is glowing

when I am in the dirt and bloated.

I covered a seed to grow it.

Equilibrium.

 

Everyone around is seen

but I am underneath the ceiling.

Everything unsaid, it sinks in

for a little too long.

 

Everyone is so ecstatic

while I am in the bath and that's it.

Lucy's next to me half smiling.

(My little equilibrium.)

 

Everyone around me is dancing.

Everyone around me is dancing.

Everyone around me is dancing

but I am in the back. I'm standing.
