When words come out to play.

When words come out to play.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

When words come out to play
it’s not a show of hands
but a show of bodies
- the attractions.
In a room viewed
as fool’s gold,
gilded thoughts mingle
amongst glitter, glamour
in an age of discovery.

when we get underneath that glitter, what might we find?
maybe it is all play with no meaning.
really like this one, andrew,
j.
