a tiny poem written
in one breath
He can't
make himself
love me anymore any
more than I can
make myself
stop
loving him.

a little soul
– a sixty second play
matthew wilkie written
in sixty seconds and to be performed in
sixty seconds
a maternity ward
night
a mother and a baby
look …
- what?
you’re beautiful
- i know …
and perfect
- i’m a baby
and you make me laugh
|
|
- even when I cry?
even when you cry
- cool
and bringing you into the world …
- what?
bringing you into the world …
- yeah?
bringing you into the world …
- come on!
well, it was …
- yeah?
it was the most fantastic thing I’ve
ever done
- fantastic, eh?
|
|
but …
- i’m fantastic!
but …
- what?
somebody else will love you more than me
- eh?
i’ll leave you here and they’ll
find you and …
- mummy?
and love you more than me
- but you’re my mummy …
i’m sorry
- no …

thoughts
what are they anyway
these cogged up words
rehashed memory traces
locked up perceptions
that flirt with feelings and desires
and corrupt dreams
just waiting room junkies
with a key
to poetry’s backdoor
