The Rehearsal | |
At left a yellow flat of sunlight leans | |
Against a raw brick wall. Two cats--one white | |
One black--slump along the vast windowsill | |
As if drugged. Their little fangs glisten. | |
A suggestion of steeple beyond the window | |
Coupled with a recording of children | |
Shouting in the imaginary square below | |
Conjures an older quarter. Red sofa stage right. | |
Coffee table strewn with breakfast's remnants. | |
Dish of bloody berries, greasy pages torn from a pastry, a coffee cup set down | |
Absently, titled on its saucer. And on the sofa she's reading newspapers. | |
The world is dramatic but not tragic... | |
