Retirement

Retirement

painted grin

mouths that move at whim

puppets on a string

pedal step

recital spin

script fed

“X marks the spot”

standing ovation

bow on command

ENCORE

roses in the air

exit the aisle

what a performance

what a show

catch a cab

“ready, set, go”

pull the cover

plump the pillow

hit the switch

fetal formation

crumpled in a corner

painted grin

TL
