So its somewhere between what you like to think
of as esoterica and that important exotic bit which
intervenes when the going gets far too mundane -
but you’ve never played that scene anyway, its a
boring character-choice avoided, & too dramatic
for space outside any theatre, or say too drek to
be restrained by good manners; so here we are -
in pedantry’s alleyway, or nowhere in particular
It’d never been a problem before today - at least
you can say that for real, but being aware and in
two minds of what it means is histrionics afoul &
the dramas concealed; is this a new me for real
or a just character one escapes into if the clash
of arcane and faraway congeals materiality
