Short Walk Gone Bad

poetry

Cue cool breeze cutting
through the damp clothes and
knocking hats to flying
and men to running after
hats
and cue the lightening
just before the thunder in
the distance, and yet
always moving closer
to the running and the
flying and the cueing
and the cussing and then
scene

One thought on “Short Walk Gone Bad”

    And beat the stage hand with the
    pool cue you’re hiding under
    the balcony you built for the set.
    Don’t forget to adjust the lighting
    to obscure the death on the face
    of the lead.

    lights back on in 3…2….1….
