'Video Shoot 05/10/09 Poem by Margaret Alice

Overjoyed, a video will be made of
translators at work, Hanlie should
flick her glossy hair while looking
up words in dictionaries

I shall talk to myself, searching
frantically for all kinds of stuff –
translators at work would be
boring BUT people acting

As if they were translating would
be interesting enough, Angelina
Jolie pouting at every word
cuddling street urchins

Cocking her gun to shoot every
irate client on sight, that would
promote translators at work
no doubt!

Prepare yourself to be videoed on Thursday
8 October, from 10: 00. It is an HLT project.
Surround yourself with dictionaries or whatever.
No need to dress up, but let's not have bare
feet or Speedos on display.
