Conductor Language

by The Bright Voice

Original EveryPoem Studio house-voice poem.

One hand means softer. Two hands mean now. A circle means breathe together. The face means something else entirely. We have missed the entrance. Again. No baton is raised. No word is spoken. Twenty-four adults understand one eyebrow and find the note at once.
