Butoh dance score by Christina Braun inspired by Mayan hummingbird legend and Emily Dickinson for new site specific performnce: Nectar 1, May 9, 2009, San Francisco Tenderloin National Forest Opening Event:
Jeffrey Scott Perry's music begins.
I become the poem/myth/music.
I accept the transformation.
Flutter-by into the waving soundscape.
Sit at the music maker's feet.
Listening with smal secret gestures.
Flower petals fall.
Spiders weave.
The sun groom glows and dazzles,
the red bride answers with an exquisite vibration.
United, we return, erase.
