 The Lost Dancer by Jean Toomer 
						Spatial depths of being surviveThe birth to death recurrences
 Of feet dancing on earth of sand;
 Vibrations of the dance survive
 The sand; the sand, elect, survives
 The dancer. He can find no source
 Of magic adequate to bind
 The sand upon his feet, his feet
 Upon his dance, his dance upon
 The diamond body of his being.
