This is a reading of the first poem in A Poetic Dance, and it is the first poem of poetry week. This is a beautiful poem about wanting to say more to a woman than "you are beautiful." The poet takes his time to explain to the woman of interest, that she is indeed beautiful but he can not write a poem about her beauty without first knowing who she is. The poet masks the true tragedy of the poem behind his colorful language, blossoming imagery, and paradoxical exuberances.
