"The poem of the mind in the act of finding what will suffice. It did not always need to know; the scene was set; it repeated what was in the script." Stevens
The Actor Pauses
Steps out of his role
stands back
ignores the lines that
yesterday whispers in his ear
Silent
aware
hears the chatter
the king of the mountain
demands for utterance
this thought
that
Watches without attachment
not a whiff of answers
only breath
relaxation
just this
just now
