No Surprises

He wakes when the sun rises

Gets up Exercises

Breakfasts with one whom he despises

Chooses one of his disguises

and his gun Fires his

first bullet It paralyses

Drives into town Terrorizes

Armed police in visors

materialize His demise is

swift No surprises.

Greek Tragedy

Approaching midnight and the mezze unfinished

we linger over Greek coffee and consider

calling for the bill, when suddenly the door

bangs open, and out of the neon-starry sky

falls a dazed giant. He stumbles in

and pinballs his way between the tables

nicking ringlets of deep-fried calamari en route.

Nikos appears from the kitchen, nervous but soothing.
