Living Statue

The statue
silvery
smile...
Slowly,
careful,
sneaky,
moves ...!
If we are distracted
another pose,
she invents ...
Live statue
silvery,
semi goddess
from the streets,
from the bank
sidewalk,
semi stopped,
challenges our
innocence

Hello alakas, I have seen people that would stand like statues for hours. As I did this , I wondered, what happens if they get a cramp. Salute Darlene.
