cue music. cue chairs. everyone up. ready to play.
an age old game, let’s take a spin,
nipped at the waist, a rhythm, a deconstruction ...
round and round, the circle speeds up,
a stream of black and white, burgundy and blue ...
the music stops, and eight become six,
remaining players, please take your positions ...
let's start the music ...
once more round,
a clean line, a chair gone,
a play on proportions in tweed and tartan ...
another layer stripped,
real or trompe l’oeil, material or optical illusion,
the music stops, and four become three ...
a trick of the eye, fully deconstructed,
music stops, three become two ...
the denouement, one last round, a game re-imagined.
black tie and tweed, rewriting the ending ...
a spin, a change of heart, a rebellion,
don’t stop the music, no one on their own ...
