  Judgement Day  



 

The Reprobatorium

 

JUDGEMENT DAY

our encounter

with conscience

stripped of status,

possessions

and personality.

 

 

 

 

Embarrassed?

Me?

I crash the cymbals and thunder the drums but it's the solo for the world's finest singer

Microphones, cameras, every seat in the house (I feel like a towel in a wringer)

Clay and emulsion with gusto I splash topped with a magnificent moustachio

My canvas a musty old junk-shop oil, oops, it's an original Carravaggio

Table-top dancer, I'm the star of the party, champagne, brandy, much kissed

I forgot the appointment, heads of state waited, my own inauguration I missed

I cover my head with an up-turned bucket, history of shame evermore kept hidden

The Gaze Of Heaven, all knowing, impersonal, our punishments by 'Out There' unbidden?

 

(Or what?)
