The Envelope Please

The suspense is building.

Anxiety runs thick in the air

Like the mist of a fog.

The crowd is aflutter

With anticipation.

Suspended in tension

Awake and agog.

Who could have written

This narrative drama

Dripping with circumstance,

Clinching its' fist

In white-knuckled wanting,

Holding its' breath,

Waiting to see

Whose star has been kissed?

Finally, the time is here.

A prayer ascends from bending knees.

Who will it be?

Will it be me?

Oh god! The envelope, please.
