The Trials of Performance

Character building exercise
diagnosis: Dinner Theater.
Such succulent
conversation cuisine!

I slip cyanide into
the manicotti I am
damn determined
to finish.

Face planted, a squish
into my Italian dish.

Artistic Merit:
What's With Music
These Days? 
...A resounding snore

A gentle breeze blows
me to the ground,
thud onto the
turquoise shag carpet

Breadcrumbs dance
to shallow breaths.
red sauce, tube shells
cheese cling to my face

Whodunit, two
murders deep.
An audience,
blood, control.
