the craft
industriously absorbed
in studious activity
having just prodded the right point
cast herself in marble
when a comet thudded into the globe
aliens squeezed out of the side
like little coloured follicles
blip blip blip as they whipped of their masks
faces glowing with cherry sap blood
rainbow bubbles rose in the cold air
with the high pitch
of their chuckling voices
drawerfuls of words blew away
darkhouse pounded
as they dragged her inside
the last dance yet to begin
sat her on a carousel
strobes hover and dart the other way
dice clattered across the table
as they decided the length of spin
HOW dizzy spinning hard and fast for hours
mind shredded like candy floss
“ take that stubborn and mute
of dubious artistry , c things in another light ” !
and with that they hurled her
with great force back at the globe
grazed and bruised , rebounded hard to the concrete
so gratefully restored to life !
