Butterflies
Though pro’s nerves may not be more micro
Make sure your’s don’t grow before thy show

she stands still
listening to the audience
beyond the curtain
seated out past the stage
there’s a drone, a buzz
there’s a fish swimming in her belly
heart pounding
blood feeling electric in her veins
the adrenaline rush of excitement
that familiar moment of panic
will the words be there
will her body remember the moves
then comes the moment of hush
as the lights dim to black
the exquisite agony of the few seconds before
the curtain rises
then she glides out
enters into the sacred
and the ride begins
