A suggestion, by Ross Hinckley

(An empty stage, a small pool of light illuminates a figure who clasps hands, takes a deep breath & recites:)

When you come into this space
and you want to have your say,
have a dreamy look upon your face
while you're RHYMING ALL THE WAY.

(he pauses, sits cross legged on the floor, some barely audible and yet strangely resonant words emanate from his inner being :)

Or hai-ku. Someone
fu-ri-ous-ly typ-ing while
rocks warm in the sun.

(another pause, he leaps up into a litle jig, and cheerfully offers:)

a limerick's a good way to play
if you think you have something to say
you just have to fiddle
the bit in the middle
and then make a quick getaway...

(He capers ludicrously from the stage.)

(Silence.)

(House lights come up. There is no one there.)
