Statuesque Hoop Dancer

Statuesque hoop dancer
greets the sun.
Features obscured by
ruby leotard.
Is this a new form of
First Nations hoop dance?

Ripples
disturb their reflection,
further obscuring
form, so
the human looks
like a sound wave echoing
away from the shore.
Is the red hoop dancer a
ballerina (or ballerino) on point?

The low light reflects off
the scarlet costume
and crimson earth.
The water vibrates with
red.
Which is the true form,
on land or within water?
