We celebrate big victories on stage on World Theatre Day.
Big actions. Huge performances.
Not the small ones.
They pass unnoticed.
Holding a fork is quieter.
π½οΈπ€²π΄β³π«π€
To hold a fork.
Timeless.
Rare.
Precious, muted steel
π½οΈπ€²π΄β³π«π€
I grasp.
It drops.
I reach.
It drops.
I grasp –
Five seconds
It drops.
π½οΈπ€²π΄β³π«π€
They glare.
The fallen fork shines.
Not the grasp.
π½οΈπ€²π΄β³π«π€
Fallen fork –
Glistens.
Grasping hand –
Dulled.
Aches.
π½οΈπ€²π΄β³π«π€
Unseen.
π½οΈπ€²π΄β³π«π€
Then lifts
Fingers clenched.
Firm.
Fork clutched.
π½οΈπ€²π΄β³π«π€
