Paroles
Behind her now
the National History Museum
Pocket Microscope she always screwed
down
to its farthest extension of nested rings, straining to focus
the peacock feather
stolen from the dining room’s
display of stiff dried flowers and fed
forwards
on to the stage, a blurred blue
petrol and purple
fronding of fine
barbules and barbicels netting
white light, broken out of straightness and scattering green and bronze before
the eyes appeared,
optical illusions
blinking between the rachides
like faces half-hidden behind wooden masks half-hidden in the trees;
behind her now
