The Forgotten Ballet
A stuttering rhythm
A broken pointe shoe
The last notes of a music box
A bodice with a broken strap
Netted skirts, all ripped into pieces
Dust and rosin cover everything
The lights around the mirror flicker on and off again
An open lipstick crumbles
A dried rose starts to mold
These are the remnants Of the Forgotten Ballet
They echo and cry
They beg to be free
It’s long been abandoned
The Forgotten Ballet
