Attracted to the outfit at first,
we eat with our eyes first,
we taste and extract flavour
from smell first
Impressions last.
To start, somewhere, set up things outside
and around your space.
In the end, what comes out
all started inside with
No-things.
The words, the scene, an act,
the play, will write itself
when it is right.
When emulation is enrapt with
blending in
costumes and charades
fade to black back in.
Practice makes no promises.
Barefoot, one can learn to feel the heat,
through the sole.
Headstrong and radiant,
the title will fit the work.
