Making a Play

exotic 
old style 
musical backdrop 
colourful
one dimensional
and me
stage left
bright as sunlight 
all bounce and red bow
I am making a play
for the lascivious angel
draped in purple and blue 
and behind her, shameless seraph
draped over her invisible lair
soft hair 
ready to ride her white pony
on the warm midnight air
her demon lover left bereft
stage right 
we have spent days and nights, weeks even years 
observing 
absorbing 
the other 
and now two have become one 
the old streetscape me you 
blended by the artist's point of view
