The Prime Minister
Comes down the stairs
I know the right time to look
As bodyguards shift into place
With their fumbling grace
Then he's out in a flurry
As if in a hurry outside
Where the cliff-face
Is a media stage show
With banks of camaras
Stationed everywhere
As if attending a film premier
The moon's overhead stare
Overshadows all the flashlight glare
With a radiating glow
Of which nothing can compare
While the other eyes
Of the night's skies
Twinkle awake
As if by surprize
For their own speckled
Spectacle of a show
The tired tide yawns
As it stretches its drawn out reach
Up and down the beach
And out in the bay
The ice-berg creaks
( Of which nobody speaks )
Chapter from Jane Air's animated ebook, Gonewiththewinds.
