One Tutu? Oh, One Tu
May this date commemorate
the horror of the little girls, fervent dancers all,
watching the sylph-like swan
in a skeletal-white tutu
beat her arm bones upward...
They were wings! We believed!
though bare human breast popped up from the feathered bodice,
one brown nipple
testing us all.
