The Mime by Timothy Resau

The mine stands before the audience and pretends to cry.

He wears the night’s performance like a new suit.

           

The sun dries the sea with anxious eyes burning down—

a rhapsody of dreams expiring.

 

As wingless as a bee the mine blinks, and moves in circles,

faceless as a stone …

a vapor reflection in a clear mirror, the mime becomes wind,

arguing amongst the garden trees.
