Sport 12: Autumn 1994

Drama Studies
Tom Cruise must pelt
in hectic flight
between the slewing hoods
of inimical sedans.
Yes, night is best.
Daylight disappoints.
A mime in white-face
impersonates a mannequin,
has cleared Civic Square.
There is a sense in which
he experiments with time:
his slow, robotic stirring
restores belief in stillness.
