Sequestered look

.

                      "okay
                       okay"
                  I were there
                   mine eyne
                       pop'd
                                  i felt the heavy uv my
                                          lower jaw
                                              drop 
                    he yell'd
      "I won't lower the curtain
                      Quiet" 
             hiz voice sound'd

        the crowded vestibule 
                only breath'd
                and suddenly
            without thuh warn
                       Flop
                    oh
                      my
                my oh my
  there wuz thuh "yuk" in the
                anteroom
          yet the rest uv us
           gasp'd in marvel
                        i
               for my part
    marvel'd when I return'd
                   home
                    and
      spill'd this here vision
         such muse alter'n 
               pluperfect
               lay'd bare 
         for mine fellow'z
           astute critique
