dancer dreams

A rented room with pealing wallpaper and a giant wardrobe and a cozy blanketed bed,

a young male cat, a small little stove with glowing coals and a ragged hooked rug,

ballet shoes scattered around the room and specific pairs hanging on pegs,

a few dreamy and worn novels, long lace curtains and mismatched cushins,
hot tea and bought cookies,painted tins of powders and "paints,"

a cheap silver painted brush and tarnished mirror,

blue satin pointe shoes,
but mostly cluttered with fabric and old costumes to be remade

and thread and buttons and ribbon
