Don't Touch The Painting

The room was all ready
the guests would all be blown away
the floor was shining so bright it could blind you
the decorations mirrored the message of today
of the reason for the publicity... why they were all coming

the music was playing quietly in the background,
the songs they all would recognise
the lyrics they all would know

the doors kept the people out as the final preps were made
the mic was turned on at the front of the hall
the spotlight was fixed to the stage
and there she sat
the painting....

the bell struck the hour and the doors were opened
in came the crowds of people
shuffling in as they did
calmly they took their seats

"Welcome, Welcome" said the host
" I thank you all for your patience and commitment"
The cloth fell to the floor to reveal her
the painting..
the room fell silent for a few moments as every ones eyes absorbed the sight
then a cheer and a whoop
"All hail she... for one night only..."
