Smooth panpipe melodies play still
Satiated notes mellow and idyll
Surreal artistry painted on the background
Variegated with shadows of objects around
Images doing the tango with the light
A close up then they move to the right
Animatedly then dangerously like dueling knights
Upholstered seats shod in brass toe caps
Tables done in an indigenous oak
The atmosphere cold
Save for the warm Persian rug beneath
The tune playing persistently
Painstakingly dissecting the veneers morose
An old classic brick fireplace
Overlooking an array of trophies
Some with an authentic golden finish
Others done in pure silver
One old and musty
The most prized of all
A shotgun; it was given by
The District Commissioner
