dance #328, ordinary affects: frustration

Ordinary affects: frustration

8:50 p.m. The dance re-members the range of feelings I experienced this morning and later forgot in the rush of the day. Frustration. Things coming apart. Tearing at the seams. I plug back into those feelings and just let them course through my tissues. The  dance moves with force downward. Jabbing fists and powerful arms. Clenched and punching. I feel lighter and smile after. Alice chews the pen as I try to write. Later she laps at the water bowl. She’s calmer tonight. The day was bright and warmish, but I barely noticed as I raced through this day.
