The curtain went up,
the lights were turned on,
the audience gasped and quietness fell.
There was I, in a chair.
In my wheelchair, I was.
Naked.
Not a stitch on.
The lights were in my face.
I could not see the audience,
but I could hear them.
Voices were coming from everywhere,
from the left, from the right,
from the upstairs, from the front row.

the moon,
a star,
the sea,
the waves,
Mother and Father,
love making,
a little room by the seaside
and from a dream.
A new day breaks
rays scorching sky
Lynne. Fancy coming to The West End Saturday?
