Isadora Duncan 1877 - 1927




mother's scarf
slides from my shoulders...
wild violets

carpe diem haiku kai

Isadora Duncan

floating in scarves
she captivated the world
with her dancing




she loved flowing scarves
one wrapped around the wheel
broke her slender neck

  4. Following the accident, Gertrude Stein remarked: "affectations can be dangerous".
