You don’t want a harsh outcry here
�not to violate the beauty yet
�dawn unveiling ochre village
�but to show coercion
�within that beauty, endurance required
�Begin with girl
�pulling hand over hand on chain
�only sound drag and creak
�in time it becomes monotonous
�
then must begin sense of unease produced by monotony
�repetitive motion, repetitive sound
�resistance, irritation
�increasing for the viewers
�sense of what they are here for anyway
�dislike of the whole thing how boring to watch
�(they aren’t used to duration
�this was a test)
�
Keep that dislike that boredom as a value
�also as risk
�so when bucket finally tinks at rim
�they breathe a sigh, not so much of relief
�as finally grasping
�what all this is for
�
dissolve as she dips from bucket
�
�
