My mommy says In a crouch with your right
hand up reaching towards the
sky
Im a miracle Take three steps (L, R, L) and

behind you
"And its plain to see Pivot back so your R leg is in
front again, drop your R arm
and put your L around your
mother then lean back
Ever since the day Grab the camera from your
father and spin in a circle
bringing the camera into your

your L hand across your body
and look to the R

Intention
Reaching up to grab the
camera from your parents
Trying to chase after the
camera which your parents
have moved
You are trying to get away
from your parents because
they are trying to take a
picture of you
You are getting ready to take
a picture with your mother
after she grabs you but you
lean away because you do
not want your photo taken
You want to take the camera
from your father so he cannot
take a picture of you
You are trying to keep the
camera away from your dad,
but then your mother grabs it
from you
Your father is grabbing you to
scold you for taking the
camera
You are trying to get away
from your dad who is
scolding you
You are reaching up to grab
the camera
You are reaching for the
camera so you can get it
back from your parents
For a miracle Bring your L hand up to meet
your R hand
Like me Bring both hands down over
your L side and turn to face
SL

side away from the camera

shoulder to face the mother

front of you at a 45 degree
angle)
You can be all Stand still
Cynical A jump straight up in the air
on cyn- and then a jump on
to your fathers back on -ical
with your legs around their
waist and your arms around
their neck (like a piggy back
ride)
You are trying to grab the
camera with both hands
Your mom has grabbed you
and is forcing you to take a
picture with her
You dont want your parents
to take a picture of you
You are trying to look and see
what your parents are doing
You see your parents are
taking a photo and you are
trying to reach up and photo
bomb it
You jump in order to ruin their
photo
You know you are about to
get scolded for ruining the
photo so you step back
You are jumping away from
your mother who is trying to
grab you because you dont
want to get punished
You are pouting waiting for
your parents to stop trying to
take a picture of you
You have to leave and you
dont want to walk so you
decide to jump on your dad
and get a piggy back ride out
instead
But its the truth empirical You are exiting stage still It is time to leave and you are
theres never been a miracle holding on to your father's going with your parents
