a sort of backdrop

 

by shaun lawton



the image was always the progenitor
 establishing the form the eye can see 
   it's not some remote object detected
 by your dilating irises, I mean
 the thing seen is all there is to this existence 
we as devoted audience remain the props
 who would have dreamed to serve its majesty 
if only we could have dropped from the thorns 
when long ago we knew we had some backup
