reminds me of something
of the thousands of plays
in which he enters (stage right) and says
- Hello.
and that is all.
somehow that is all i see
behind your smile
the polite stage instruction
added as an appendix to the greeting
(pleasantly)
and so i nod and reply
-Hello
as every stock character should
and how do you do
what you do as you converse
while moving in slight diagonals away
from me and my face that faces
our unseen audience
this is just a thought to say
that when i exit (stage left)
the doors will keep on slamming
all the way to the street(and the critics will say
what a delightful piece of passion
the chemistry is charming between the two)
i'll let you improvise goodbye
because i won't give you your cue
farewell
