#25: Electric
Prompt: write a poem with a line from another poem
I sing of the body electric
And it sings back to me:
Electromagnetic transducer
Converting acoustic signals
Into electric ones
This microphone that transforms
One form of energy
Into another
Like you - a body electric
Poised on the point
Of a silken toeshoe
So perfectly balanced
Your stillness a suspended raindrop
Waiting to explode
Into glorious motion
On contact with the ground.
