They Closed Their Eyes...

Fanny Ara - One of tonight's performers



Le Poisson Rouge on Bleeker Street.  A place filled with ambiance and people looking for "cool".  This was the venue for tonight's Flamenco event.  The passion was rich.  The dancing, the singing...mesmerizing.  Yet what moved me the most was what I was able to see when they closed their eyes.  I saw souls lost in their art.  Allowing themselves to fade into a form and beauty called Flamenco.  The closest thing to what I truly believe making love should be.  With a flame that will direct you towards "tender" while at the same time building you up into "hard".  Allowing yourself the blessing of "seeing" with your hands and body is to take in ALL of the person your "inner eyes" want to know.  Closing your eyes to what is surface.  Seeing only from your innermost.  THAT is when "deep calls unto deep".  That is pure...that is beauty.

Tonight I saw a few make passionate love through their art form...they closed their eyes...and so did I.
