works by william pham, 2005-present
How She Walks She walks like how the city walks, like how the city would skip-hop-jump-waltz-trot -- foxtrot, one, two, three, four -- one, two, three, four. She walks like how a performance of "Swan Lake" walks, each step the step of a thousand ballet dancers compressed into her heel, and still she wonders why they love her while she talks over an appetizer at that Thai place on Russian Hill.
