New poem: "The Egoist"

 

The Egoist

 

I saw it in his eyes,

the sweet ecstasy of being

seen for the great actor that

he became. Dead now, at 87,

and all over YouTube with old

interviews revealing the arcane

secret of his excellence with

more confidence than he knew

he had; master of the brooding

silence, lauding his talent with

all the humility his British

pride could bear.

 

Composed in Tiny Beaches,

Georgian Bay, Southcentral, Ontario
