PRESTO AGITATO, by                    
First Line: Your eyes-two luminous beads
Last Line: Of a bacchanalian dance!
Subject(s): Dancing & Dancers


Your eyes—two luminous beads—
flash blazingly
in your triumphant poise,—
and with the flamboyant grace
of a slender eagle
you dart off
in abandon,
flapping and diffusing
the giddy swell
of a Bacchanalian dance!
