Sometimes I ignored the people passing by. I was part of the darbuka music, feeling it flow through me, enjoying the way my body obeyed my commands. Belly dancing was harder than it looked. The different Figure Eights, the Maya Hips, shimmies. If I did them right, people would just feel the undulations, curving patterns, lifts, and thrusts. Sometimes I watched the people as I danced, studying their responses and playing to their desires. I couldn't tell you which way felt more powerful...

@cattailnu They dance their way through the streets, through the worlds, like no one sees them. So no one does.One night, one world, someone will see them and that will be who they are seeking.

@Tallstories That sounds like the back cover text of a book.

@cattailnu She dance as if she didn't cared about the plague. Because she don't care. She is beyond these simple things. People can't breathe without their oxigen masks. So what? She is rhythm. She is music. She must dance or everything will go to hell. As long as there is life, she will dance because she's the spirit of life. Her movements keep everything going. And those that see her are about to die, because she is also the spirit of death. Those will dance with her…#WritingPrompt

@cattailnu Silhouetted by the city’s neon backdrop, the street dancer swayed to pulsating beats blasting from an audio deck. Her smile was a thin facade masking her inner turmoil. Once upon a time she performed with elite dance troupes at prestigious halls across the galaxy, but a torrid affair left her an outcast. Now she gyrated and spun through her many regrets. #microfiction #prompt #sff #shortfiction #writing #SFFWriter #writingcommunity #indiewriter #writersofmastodon

I have many names. I have had many. Across the aeons, as I have danced, upon the mountains and in the forests; in your caves and around the smoky roundhouse hearths, I was known by more than even I remember.Today, I dance in the ruins and the cities, the fields and the liners of the ocean; even on the waves. But, most frantic is my dance in your crowded streets.I dance upon all, to all, and those that see me fear the ferocity of my gaze. For I am justice and vengeance, Morrigan, Hekate and Kali. I am the devourer, the guide, the bearer of fire and ice. And, today, I dance for you.

@cattailnu Tenacious fingers wrapped around my soulMy precious child how you have grownFor years the only touch i've known (the touch has been my own)Oh the life i gave to you was mineAnd how in darkness you did shineBut before the lightYou fear that you'll be left behindYou stood to guard the best there was in meThe time has come to give me back the keyThe time has come at last to set me freeSleep now, Misery
