on Capturing Nureyev

 





On Capturing Nureyev

:

and naked (oh both!

you know the difference)


palm, the pouchy closure

of your grip before the warp 

the fire!  of trying to let go


:


Rudi Nureyev had a brief

agreement with Gravity.  Sir, he said.  Sir,

Gravity said.  Who bowed first?
