Travel Haiku - Birmingham International Dance Festival (United Kingdom)
Birmingham International Dance Festival
the bellydance sweeps
us off our feet
Birmingham International Dance Festival
tiptoeing over the stage
the city mayor
Birmingham International Dance Festival
our torsos try to
outdo each other
Birmingham International Dance Festival
dancers take turn
to be audience
