Circus Vertigo - Chapter One

 

Circus in Mind

Hope you were (not) thinking of me.

 

Jongin woke up

feeling very tired

and with

reluctance

he started 

a new day.

 

This will be a very boring day.

 

The sky was grey;

The sunshine was

fighting

for enter

through the

tiny curtains; 

 

only to

lit 

Jongin's face

like a soft

touch.

 

What a boring day.

 

Jongin kept thinking

about 

the Circus

the Show

Lu Han

until 

he heard a knock 

in his apartment door.

 

Maybe not so boring.

 

he opened the door:

 

no one.

 

There was a letter

left in front of him:

 

"Come to see

Circus Vertigo's 

last show

in town!

 

Don't miss

the last chance

to see 

Vertigo's prodigies 

 

Saturday

at 9.30 pm

 

free entrance."

 

the last chance.

 

Jongin decided to go

 

only because it was free.

 

Saturday night, 9.47 pm.

 

Jongin was enjoying the show

even if it was the same

as the last time

but this time

there was a new guy.

Long, gross, hairy

goat legs 

kept him standing.

He was making

soap bubbles;

and when the bubbles

burst in air

a bunch of 

black butterflies 

flied everywhere.

 

He couldn't figure out

how he could do such things

how he could have goat legs

how all of this could exist.

Circus is magic.

 

Black pupils

Balck iris

and

White suite

 

A tiger tamer

was making his way 

towards the centre

of the stage

 

White pupils

White iris

and

Black fur

 

A blind

black tiger

followed him

silently.

 

The guy started to 

made the tiger

jump into a 

fire ring

and then

another

and 

another

until

the tamer

stops her,

only to 

making her dissapear

in a puff

of fog.

Circus is intriguing.

 

A pair of eyes

popped up 

from the stage courtains.

A man,

probably around Jongin's age

was moving towards one

of the two pedestals

placed on the sides

of the stage;

then another guy 

came from the curtains.

 

The two of them started playing 

instruments;

in the middle of

the exhibition

one of them

stopped,

a shade of red

could be seen

in his face;

he coughed

and from his mouth

he pulled out

a bouquet of flowers.

The other went near him

and asked

"are you okay man?"

patting him

on the shoulder

"I'm fine thanks

but

isn't it hot

in here?"

he said, shaking

his big trousers,

and in that moment 

two doves

flied away.

 Circus is fun.

 

10.50

The show

finished

everyone started to

packing their things

ready to return

home.

 

We're hiring.

 

Jongin was slowly 

making his way towards 

the exit

when the man

ho spoke to him

last time

stopped him

"did you think about

what I said?"

he said, grinning.

 

"so, this is Park Hyo-ra,

she's our tightrope walker,

these are Fei Fei and

Sui He, the trapezists,

and these are exo"

exo.
