She has been here beforeand now I can recognize her gaitas she approaches the house.Some nights, when I know she's coming,I unlock the door, lie down on my back,and count her stepsfrom the street to the porch.Tonight she brings a pencil and a ream of paper,tells me to write downeveryone I have ever known,and we separate them between the living and the deadso she can pick each name at random.I play her favorite Willie Nelson albumbecause she misses Texasbut I don't ask why.She hums a little,the way my brother does when he gardens.We sit for an hourwhile she tells me how unreasonable I've been,crying in the check-out line,refusing to eat, refusing to shower,all the smoking and all the drinking.Eventually she puts one of her heavypurple arms around me, leansher head against mine,and all of a sudden things are feeling romantic.So I tell her,things are feeling romantic.She pulls another name, this timefrom the dead,and turns to me in that way that parents doso you feel embarrassed or ashamed of something.Romantic? She says,reading the name out loud, slowlyso I am aware of each syllable, each vowelwrapping around the bones like new muscle,the sound of that person's bodyand how reckless it is,how careless that his name is in one pile and not the other.Copyright: Matthew Dickman.

SourceThis episode includes a reading of his poem, "Slow Dance.""Slow Dance"More than putting another man on the moon,more than a New Year's resolution of yogurt and yoga,we need the opportunity to dancewith really exquisite strangers. A slow dancebetween the couch and dinning room table, at the endof the party, while the person we love has goneto bring the car aroundbecause it's begun to rain and would break their heartif any part of us got wet. A slow danceto bring the evening home, to knock it out of the park. Two peoplerocking back and forth like a buoy. Nothing extravagant.A little music. An empty bottle of whiskey.It's a little like cheating. Your head restingon his shoulder, your breath moving up his neck.Your hands along her spine. Her hipsunfolding like a cotton napkinand you begin to think about how all the stars in the skyare dead. The my bodyis talking to your body slow dance. The Unchained Melody,Stairway to Heaven, power-cord slow dance. All my lifeI've made mistakes. Smalland cruel. I made my plans.I never arrived. I ate my food. I drank my wine.The slow dance doesn't care. It's all kindness like childrenbefore they turn four. Like being held in the armsof my brother. The slow dance of siblings.Two men in the middle of the room. When I dance with him,one of my great loves, he is absolutely human,and when he turns to dip meor I step on his foot because we are both leading,I know that one of us will die first and the other will suffer.The slow dance of what's to comeand the slow dance of insomniapouring across the floor like bath water.When the woman I'm sleeping withstands naked in the bathroom,brushing her teeth, the slow dance of ritual is being spitinto the sink. There is no one to save usbecause there is no need to be saved.I've hurt you. I've loved you. I've mowedthe front yard. When the stranger wearing a shear white dresscovered in a million beadscomes toward me like an over-sexed chandelier suddenly come to life,I take her hand in mine. I spin her outand bring her in. This is the almond grovein the dark slow dance.It is what we should be doing right now. Scrappingfor joy. The haiku and honey. The orange and orangutang slow dance.Support the show

In this episode, I read "Slow Dance" by Matthew Dickman. Matthew writes of slow dances with strangers and with lovers, with siblings and with orangutans and what they feel like. By the end of the poem he reminds you of any that you might have had and makes you envious if you haven't yet slow danced with someone.

No hay perro encadenado a un poste en un jardín de pasto que se marchita, como los perros con los que me crié, hambrientos, sobrealimentados, golpeados en la cara por los chicos, no hay chicos, no hay petardos deslizados por largas gargantas de botellas los primeros días del verano, no hay cielo en explosión, sangre ni huesos, porque nosotros éramos los huesos, no hay más Señor Dios Mío, ni tampoco mapas hechos de fuego, una pequeña llamarada que arde donde me crié, para que pueda, si yo quiero, señalar la llama que era la Avenida 82, no hay leche en la heladera, tampoco caminar por la calle al negocito que vendía navajas mariposa, no hay navajas, no hay miel ahora que toda la dulzura ya no existe, aunque nosotros éramos la dulzura, aunque necesitábamos algo para la lengua, no hay más jabón barato ni lavarnos la boca con jabón porque Hijo de puta y porque Andá a la mierda nos salían de la boca como peces del Océano Pacífico, no hay colibríes, no hay curitas ni rodillas raspadas con el barro y las piedras del barrio porque nosotros éramos el barro, no hay madres jóvenes que fuman cigarrillos en el porche mientras el cielo se pone lindo antes de que anochezca, aunque ellas eran más lindas y el cielo se volvió en su contra. No hay punk rock ni fiesta de egresados, ni zapatos baratos de taco alto abandonados en la lluvia en un estacionamiento, ni botellas vacías de tinto de verano porque nosotros éramos las botellas vacías, ni tampoco arrojarlas contra la pared de detrás de la escuela, porque nosotros éramos los vidrios que se hacían pedazos. No mirar más en dirección al oeste, no hay este, norte o sur, sólo nosotros acá parados, juntos, preguntándonos los unos a los otros, si recordamos algo, qué era lo que amábamos, qué lo que nos amaba, quién fue el primero en gritar nuestros nombres.

College to G-league

Toda la noche me sentí en tu cuarto, con las puertas francesas que se abrían al porche, la mesa ahí, el patio allá y la última flor más allá, toda la noche todo lo que quería era la sombra de vainilla de tus dedos, el caramelo oscuro de tus axilas, la leve nieve que tus pies parecen, toda la noche parecía un barco la noche, aunque yo sé que vos vas a odiar este símil, un barco que parece a la vez caminar hacia la costa de tus caderas, y alejarse lento, toda la noche toda el agua del mundo parecía tan quieta como una taza de té envuelta en un papel y metida en el fondo de una caja llena de bolitas de telgopor. Esta mañana le puse azúcar al café, cosa que nunca hago, y seguí llorando, cosa que suelo hacer siempre que pienso que entré a tu casa con una espada japonesa y te corté a la mitad mientras dormías. El solo hecho de pensar en vos durmiendo hace que quiera cortar todas las flores de la tierra y tirarlas en tu cama. Es un mundo de odio, ya lo sé, y luchamos contra el cielo tachonado de estrellas y quemado que son nuestros cerebros. Me la paso despertándome en una caja hecha de hielo negro, y algunas veces oigo tu voz que me habla en otro idioma y a veces no oigo nada, pero siempre hay una fruta chiquitita en un árbol donde tallé mi nombre y tallé el tuyo, y me tallé en el brazo una notita que siempre dice Perdoname y amor y perdoname una y otra vez, cada letra deletrea mi nombre, que en el idioma de anoche significa apología, o significa quién te creés que sos, a duras penas sos un hombre. Toda la noche quise sentarme con vos a la mesa y servir la cerveza en boles turcos, y que todos los cortes que forman tu cuerpo y el mío se cierren como tulipanes en la oscuridad del jardín de la entrada, cada vez más fresco.
