After the Performance of the Black Tent Theater Group on the Shores of the Nagara River
The actresses without their makeup,
their costumes, their roles
are returned to being mortals.
I watch them eat quietly in a small inn.
They have no illusions, almost plain
like saints
perfect in their
re-entry.
