Dónall Dempsey - MAGICAL AS ALWAYS!
0 Views • Nov 07, 2014
Description
as a statue
you stand
there
a Venus
come to life
wrapped
in thought
(I watch
enraptured)
until the doorbell rings
whereupon you yank
the table cloth
in one swift sharp motion
from the table
and attire
yourself in it
the cup & saucers
vase of freesia flowers
tremble slightly
but: stay in place!
And then to invisible applause
you step off stage
return…clutching
the long longed for registered letter.
The postman
smiles and whistles
down the crazy paving
his morning made.
You let
the table cloth fall
laugh
magical as all...
...ways!
