Hammer
I scan the faces
looking down at me
for Peter Cushing.
A ham at heart, I love
the starring role and
this is a monster of a part.
Lights, camera... Action!
Dr F, eyes gleaming
above his white mask,
injects anaesthetic.
(Going under)
Apply those pads,
throw that lever,
unleash that current,
zap my stuttering heart.
(Coming to)
Normal rhythm of life restored,
I rise from the slab... Cut!
