Self Reflection [Choreography]

Song: (Ripe & Ruin) by alt-J | Album: An Awesome Wave

Last week, electrodynamics homework took way fewer hours than anticipated… and every inch of my body screamed TAKE A BREAK FROM RESEARCH.
Sooooooo, here is an experimental first draft of some tomfoolery inspired by an album I have been hooked on for the last few days.
Constructive criticism – whether in the comments or in a message – is always appreciated! 😁

(Ripe & Ruin) by alt-J

She she she she only ever-ver-ver-ver walks to to count count her steps,
Eighteen-teen strides and she stops to abide
By the law that she herself has set

That eighteen steps is one complete set,
And before the next nine right and nine left
She looks up up at the blue
And whispers to all of the above,

“Don’t let me drown, don’t breathe alone,
No kicks no pangs no broken bones.
Never let me sink, always feel at home,
No sticks no shanks and no stones.
Never leave it too late, always enjoy the taste
Of the great great great grey world of hearts.”

As all dogs everywhere bark bark bark bark,
“It’s worth knowing
Like all good fruit the balance of life is in the ripe and ruin.”
