The dancing flamingo had the energy and stamina of the city
Streets of New York never felt more lively
He generously shifted through the space with an open heart
Audience, curious and intrigued by his graceful start
Flesh moving distinctively and with full intent
Movement that were subtle yet very profound to him
Inspiration was all around the dancing flamingo
From the energy of people from all over the world to the sound of the city, he twirled
The extensions, the lines, the shapes, the torso, the arms
There was justice in the quality of his form
His silhouette, absolutely stunning
Hard for someone not to watch
An incredible bond formed between him and his audience
Connection that was mutual and well reciprocated
The dancing flamingo offered rejuvenation of the spirit
Magic was created by him, the audience, and the grounds of New York City
