...A Poem by Ookpikhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfWSOs5YbQ8&ab_channel=Soap%26Skin-Topic. . . He sighed … . F**k, if he didn’t sigh - Pouring away relief, Timbered suspiration And chambered disbelief. . He sighed the way men sigh As if they’d just narrowly escaped Attendance and a front-row seat To the performance of a lifetime - . Showing at the local theater And under the signed Marquee: . . First come first Served . A Firing Line. . All day Matinée . . Lord, how he sighed … Lord. Lord. . As if he’d only just dodged the guillotine, Been handed then a sword, Bypassed the arena And then made it home from court. . . Stars … He thanked his lucky stars; Signed his chest to Mary And then marked the holy trinity . With the sleeves along his arms. . . .
