just imagine
whoever is going to play with you
caressing your keyhole
touching it
feeling it
your key being so slowly inserted in
meshing with your workings
tight
tested
tension against it
but not enough to make it turn
testing just how much resistance there is
before it ratchets, into you
your mainspring not coiling
not yet
until the resistance is defeated
click
from inside you
your working. Gears meshing.
Tension building up on your mainspring.
Little by little.
Little by little. Click by click.
But it is not released. You are still.
Your key is turning. Inside.
Slowly, so slowly. caressed from outside.
Until it is
let go
what will you do? How will a doll play?
