The Queen and I
from Tiny Pictures Hosted by Frankensound
music and prose by Roly Skender I arrive at the palace by bus The Queen and I are getting on surprisingly well She’s dressed elegantly in red In the giant hall we dance beneath chandeliers and cameras flash around us Family, dignitaries and the press watch on We talk about history and philosophy She confides in me some little-known annoyances, that she experiences in her role as monarch It’s a job in which, she discloses, she does her best She’s so easy to talk to Then, mid-conversation, she reaches down and grabs hold of my genitals I push her hand away and say ‘that’s not why I’m here’ but I don’t really know why I’m here Her strength is surprising With knees bent, I push her wrist away from my crotch We eventually drop to the floor together I apologise Men arrive to take her away from me, but she breaks free of them and rushes towards me This time I catch the force of her underarm grab with both hands at her forearm and the force is re-directed I remain in a broad, bent-knee stance as my feet slide backwards across the dance floor I narrowly avoid contact with a table of canapes Quite suddenly, it’s time to leave But I enjoyed dancing with the queen
