Tao
can never dance.
All dance
is Tao.


Tao
can never forgive.
All things
create themselves.


Dance is not
wu-wei, action
without thought.


Dance is not shen yen,
realization that natural
rhythm is absolute freedom.


Dance escapes
definition.
Dance can only
be danced.


Forgiveness
is not a way
of moving
both in sorrow
and in peace.


Forgiveness
is not the child
of experience wedded
to understanding.


Forgiveness:
the union of open mind,
spontaneous movement,
and pure spirit.


Forgiveness:
the basic function
of dance.
