RAINCOAT: A New Pairing of an Old Poem and An Old Dance

Well, the poem (RAINCOAT) was actually written in February 2008 when I had first conceived of the concept of the movement piece. The improvisation (Exhume) was not performed until May 2008. So it is not really a new pairing of the two, but neither have been shared with "the public" together. The poem is from A Poem A Day For a Year that I did with my friend Ben. Most of the poems have hardly been seen or read. Maybe I will exhume more of them.




RAINCOAT

I see the future
And it looks like a little red raincoat.
Semilucent rose.
Rock'n roll rose.

Strobelight pose.
Blast from the past
To illuminate the present.
Forgotten sketches of the
Skeleton within.
Exhume the grave.
Bring back Jane.
