The Inner Story
The inner story as the term pertains to an event of Sacred Dance, especially as the Scared Dance moves more towards the form know as Sacred Circle LongDance, is comprised of a sometimes seemingly  unrelated set of images which, perhaps we can say because of the tactile and sensuous feelings which they stir within ones heart as they are brushed upon the flow on a session, become a unified urge, a unified vision, within the individual and the circle.,  The intent of the facilitator as artist of the heart is always inspiration towards deeper life. 

ÏTiger, Tiger burning bright, who could frame thy fearful symmetry?Ó 

ÎIt is I,Ì the inner glow of the older ember sang. 
ÎIt is I,Ì the sporadic flame of the young wood sang. 
By the night dark summer lake of the soul 
you, the child, sit patiently awaiting the whisper of angels. 
The reflection of the stars upon the water 
like white rose petals falling, 
kiss the heart. 

Upon the owlÌs wing 
the mind, upon the breath, 
rides out upon the soft air above the lake. 

Are these star shadows? 

Or moon shadows? 

The silhouettes of the forest of my soul and of my body by the lake 
are one and the same.
