Ode to the Belly Dancing Girl
The zills chime,
As the beat of the drums
Cause her hips to
Move up and down
Back and forth
In a sexual cadence
Her beauty unmatched
Her hair long and raven black
Stops just before the swell of the back
Her heart pure
Her dancing
Hypnotic
Her hips tell
A thousand tales:
Tales of love,
Tales of heartbreak,
Tales of passion,
Tales of rage,
Tales of lust,
Tales of forbidden fruit tasted at last
Her hip bells
Jingle and jangle magically
As she spends
Seemingly above
The floor
The men in the crowd
Hypnotized
Her arms reach up towards the heavens
As they snake there
Way up it seems as if
She can almost touch
The feet of God
Her veil twirls
As it drapes over her
Thin and cat like frame
The music speaks to her heart
Just as God speaks the pure
The music fills her
Causing her hips to vibrate
In a beautiful,
But seizure like fashion
This is the way she speaks to the crowd
How free she is
To say what
Most leave unspoken
They may not know her name,
But she's the one they dream about
She’s the one they come to see
She’s the one they all cheer for
She’s the belly dancer girl
And for two hours a night
Her heart is an open book for you to read
