about

inspired by Biscuit, the Yarrow family dog, and Zandvlei park

lyrics

Theatre in the Park

window-panes tortoise-drip see-through streamer-lines
clinging to the darkening frames
wood-shack planks swelling now
remembering their sturdy forest forefathers
snails drown delighted in vrot milk stout

and while the pumpkins roam free across the park
a man sniffs the damp
umbrella-clad
turns another page of trash-pulp
littering his mind with unscooped poop

his brown-eared pup shakes off its drenchcoat
a centrifugal centipede movement-moment
now weaving across the slowly marching master-figure
back and forth in instinctive sine waves
(for only human ley lines run straight)

and then as the geese fly low on their
volcano-free flight-paths
our hero feels a pelvic undershriek
crushed too long in tight thought-bottles
and as the clouds pause for insucked breath-beats
he surges out of slip-shit shoes and performs
a Swan Lake in laddered leotard
mascara-smudged and gorgeous
voice brimming with the melodies
of the half-tended garden beds’ fat vygie fingers

from the grateful waders and daisies
comes an orchestral ovation
at a pitch heard only by dogs
and passing angels

now there will be more performances like this
and the land’s ever-glowing heart
will love them.
