the dancing dances

The dancing dances the dancer.
When the dancer dances, dancing stops.
Something else is going on.

The walking walks the walker.
When the walker walks, walking stops.
Walkering begins.

The singing sings the singer.
When the singer sings, singing disappears.
Ears can hear this.

The breathing breathes the breather.
When the breather breathes, all goes to hell.
Panting and arrythmia are ours.

We know this, yet insist
the dancer and the walker and the singer and the breather
rule the world.

  1. We have learned to take the dancer above the dancing. Then we hold onto the dancer and lose the dancing. Of course we can't hold onto the dancing because dancing is not a thing. Of course we are good at thinging.
