The White-Armed Statuette Poem by Stug Jordan

The White-Armed Statuette



The white-armed statuette
is transfixed by the night,

but gracefully moves to the masters’
‘the best of the adagios’.

Tomorrow she’ll break
in the back of a lorry at Felixstowe,

though only a slender finger.
Not enough to prevent her

from conducting the night.
