Pagan Angel
by Audacity RavenHawk
Age Group: Adult
She stood naked in her ring of fire
She was dancing in the crossroads downtown in a small city. Her body was slender and magnificent. Her face was awash with joy. She knew she was beautiful.
Devil may care -- but he really should mind his own business.
The drummers sat in their own circle not too far from here. Everything was illuminated in the pale draining half light that is prominent in the moments just following the sunset. The sky showed no evidence of any desire to produce rain any time soon.
There is an incontrovertible peace in the dance. The flames were high. Eight feet at their highest flare. They were surrealistic in their translucence, but undeniable in their heat. Who knew how to get inside the circle? It would be cheating to swoop down upon her from above like some flying predatory bird.
The circle was surrounded by hundreds of spectators; some of them were cops. No one seemed to know what to do, including law enforcement, so they just milled about gaping. Her face reflected a spiritual reverence for the mix of pleasure and pain that was brought about by moving so quickly and with such agility in the intense heat of her chosen stage.
And then everyone heard the thunder; it rocked the Earth. Like a heartbeat in time with the drums....
….And we all felt it in our bones
