What the Gallery sees

by Rai Laurel

A set of poems meant to be from the perspective of the gallery itself, or at least a third person view of either the events of the game or the individual characters. Could include any number of characters, but different for each individual poem.

"Mistake"

the final sketch
within the serpent's gut is
stuck in crayon wax.

(loneliness) ignored,
mary sobs in vain (as)
flames consume her flesh.

crayons and lead paint
grinning DOLLS with wide red mouths.
there's no leaving that
