With Semba/Kizomba teacher, Dasmara, we met a young girl and shared a few first steps.
Wistfully I remember
a kind and gentle companion
which in the entirety of my life I've never seen...but yet remember
her mouth so gilded,
her body in ebb,
a breath that is lost
in that afternoon, so gilded.
Mário de Sá-Carneiro
