The lights go down
You step forward,
Spotlight
Suddenly a figure in black enters
Stage left,
A glint of metal
An arm raised
Bang bang your dead?
End of act one…..
Hint of mist,
Haze of fog,
Gravestone centre stage,
Hush falls over the audience,
The earth in the grave tumbles,
Slips
Fingers push upwards,
A hand raised up,
Blackened nails stretch out
Through a solid stage?!
