The apparition of a star, aglow in her gold-studded see-through dress
Like a Rory Bjorkman animated sculpture she glides away
Casting a sideways glance at the camera, friend or foe, who knows ?
She disappears in the wake of her own mystery and the din of the mas-bands
She was last seen holding tight to a small shiny bottle
Was it the antidote we are all looking for ?
The magical potion that would dispel our ennui…
