Читать книгу bright, brief & bone-pale - Finn Rose - Страница 3

arms open, curtain draws to either side, stagelight spotlight in my eye

it pains the way the silence presses through the skin and burns a bit

and in my hand i hold a paper with a single line of text instruction.

tell them this is very well, that they will not be disappointed,

they will find within these pages many problems are exploited,

mostly with the means of mediocre metaphors

and that they might take mild offense to themes of gore, death and theology

but if they cautiously proceed

they might find here in what they read

another voice that says in soft-clipped similes,

pretends pretentiously to know what they're supposed to speak.
