Oyez! Oyez!
This is a gala evening!
Veiled angels
Crowd the theatre
To see a play
Of hopes and fears
Motley mimes
Toss about the scene
Held up by therads
Sinking in the deep
Onstage
In a corner
Hidden behind myself
I hold my breath:
In the airless air
Shards of crushed rainbows
Fill my limbo
Placed somewhere
Between world and toys
