He starts
cautiously
with small steps
warms me up, back and forth
prolongs his leg, goes
from minuet to pavane
strides old-fashioned deeper
adds quick pushes
then unchains himself
from allemande to courante
and leads me into the sixth heaven
slowly flying there sarabande
around with me, in expectation
enjoying
each other and longing
for the delayed presto
touch on the sensitive strings
ending on the highest note
