Boundaries pushed for lights and dance America so eager to imitate gave you no chance So you moved to art nouveau France Where you twirl, spin, ignite leaving crowds in a trance How that silk captures the flame so bright Tricks of mirrors and stroboscopic lights You strobos angel of the night The crowd watches as you twirl in dizzying flight The silk rose opens and morphs to flame As you spin and dance your way to fame All those impostors you have put to shame The opera house now pronounces you a grande dame All that training, all that tiresome work Damaged eyes and mind driven berserk Has created a new form of serpentine artwork Exploding luminescent colors, a dancing firework
