Screen Dump 558

You disregard the cautionary Don't even go there . . .

blind to the blind alley

after which script in hand you dial in an offhandedness

and exit into daylight . . .

the crucial moment reminiscent

of the timelessness of the dance floor . . .

the choreography effortless

as if from a roomful of rehearsals . . .

This moment-to-moment ritual

that opened doors and eyes

on what was never meant to be

was archived . . . to be pulled out

years later . . . again and again

with a nonchalance . . .

a tribute to the resilience of the script . . .

But several times is several times, yes? . . .

The oddity of the re-entanglement . . .

Where were we? . . . ah, yes . . .

The parties engaged fulfilled detached . . .

the dead end irrelevant

the strangeness . . . fodder for documentarians . . .
