She looks at you expectant,
A cup teeters on the edge of a table
A man raises his hand
As if to laugh but doesn't,
A waitress approaches tentatively,
Like an a extra waiting to take the stage,
Clouds descend as if on a winch,
While a shadowy man
Stands in the wings
Mouthing words that you recognise
But for some reason won’t come.
