An Artist's Residency in the Mountains of Virginia

arriving arriving arriving
the woods take me in
so far, so good
I've made a fire, unpacked
I'll make my first meal soon
teapot works
the view is nice
the rain sings
there's nothing to do
just listen
don't worry, it will come
You can think about survival if you want
but you're here to remember yourself
don't worry, she'll come


I'm at the Workspace for Choreographers in Sperryville, Virginia. A gorgeous studio in the mountains, hosted by the wise and gracious Sally Nash. I've been here five days now. City skin is finally starting to shed. The muse should be showing up any minute now...
