Hoopin'

It whirls around touching my body

at all times, grazing my skin

leaving minor scratches behind.  

 

Reaching down it rolls across my

back and onto my hand which is

pressed against my spine

 

I bend at the elbow and levitate the

hoop towards the sunbeams keeping

my skin warm. 

 

Around my fingers one by one the

hoop spins in a perfect circle at

any speed I desire

 

I pull the hoop in front of me and

jump through bringing the hoop

back to the sky,  

 

I whip the air and bring the hoop

into an isolation,

 

Zig-Zag until it gets closer

forcing the hoop to my elbow for a ride

until…                                      

                                                          The Drop.

The hoop spins through the sky straight

up then down to my arm, back to my

hand and into another isolation.

 

All within one minute.
