the call, a calling

I
have been
asked to step

forward.
Come forth
to the ring

dazzle
the crowd
with spins, kicks

leaps
spectacular. But
alas, my technique

is
not such
found in Hollywood

blockbusters.
Yet, step
to the mat

I
will. Feel
the air breeze

past
the difference
between hit and

miss
the width
of my hair.

To
be seen
yet not be

felt.
And when
the time is

now.
I shall
step forth close

to
your ear
in the slightest

of
breaths
to say only

this
under Stephanie's
well nourished moon.
