Up-lit child bathes velutinous
On the school stage the sweet sparrow sings
And parents grasp the clutching maw machines
Vanishing heads present arms raised to stream
Fleshly branches fluoresce process
Obsidian rectangular masks fracture verisimilitude geometric Picasso
The child blink-blinks for the glass forest asway
The ousted eyes triangulate flashes
Broadcasting mobile Sieg Heils sotto..
The child finishes so softly and awaits alas
Clasped seconds of silence roar a smear
Mobile salutations ceasefire
And mural beef fists in flowering repose applaud
The child slightly bewildered
Smiles a sliden relief..
One hand clapping Mumsnet Buddhas
Tap-tap the smart plastic
An echo of pregnant applause reverses
Someone presses open together hands
Circling dragons dance around the time-broken reserve..
Hands parting hands press together apart in one claps..
And a pregnant pause-cheer whoops a Theremin
A car alarm attunes for a ghost..
Relayed new memories lap double-glaze
The phasing phased in out in
The fled bleed around looking glass dunes
Childhood paused uploaded prefaded
Windows if waves crash mirrors cast..
