Metrophobia
poetry [ ]
(the fear of poetry)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
by Veronica Valeanu [VeronicaValeanu ]

2009-10-05  |     | 



(circular)
there pivots Prima Ballerina
upon her pleated tutu
the alive layer raised the black flag
then
the dead layer raised the white flag
to do the wave
for the grandstand

(centripetal)
the Stadium's still-life printing
a fliptomania
hands holding out to cling
to the caterpillar track-pirouette

(centrifugal)
the Merry-Go-Round
was shredding its vertego
into thinking-between beams

the C(h)oreography did nothing but go round in circles
