E Mail To Damniso Lopez 12

Harlequins can sing
Because Harlequins
Had no instructors,
Have no ancestors.
Harlequins can dance,
Can leap, leap over the moon
And then
Come back to earth
To land standing up
On two feet
On the wood floor
Of the middle-class room.
But the harlequins stand unseen,
Stands as a stranger to all
Who are passionately playing cards.
The card players believe
Harlequins wait their turn
To join in the game,
But Harlequins remain
Far distant from all,
Turn their backs,
Shake their multicolored sleeves.
Harlequins only come back to earth
And enter this middle-class room
Because she
With the straight, long, white gold blonde hair
Was there playing cards.
But she see only trumps,
Not Harlequins
Shining in their colored silk suits.
