the master of ceremonies in the circus of realities subverts the performers with spotlit provocations
witness the psychic juggler bowler hatted peering at eve perhaps over the rim of a bright green apple
it ' s a high wire act relandscaping the human condition to have men similarly bowler hatted defy gravity
sometime find the act ablaze with light and halo headed balancing on the threshold of another world reconfiguring the fall
imagine magritte in keats ' company at ease with contradictions or teasing with Blake the progress of his contraries
and yet all this belgian effort to reflect beauty in a false mirror is the triumph of his age an answer to an earlier dare by someone who wore his trousers rolled to disturb the universe with another annunciation to come up with something new or more at least a collective invention to transfix time & challenge nature with dark wings and bad dreams
