The man in the -white as snow- thobe looked like a statue of <br />the saviour, as seen in protestant churches. He walked amongst <br />people at the farmers market, gently spoke about this and that, <br />maybe the price of cucumbers? What do I know? <br /> Soon he had a fan base; people liked him and asked questions <br />that had more to do with metaphysical reasoning than the cost <br />of agricultural products. <br />This disturbed authorities, was the stranger sowing seditious <br />thoughts in people’s mind? And his thobe it repelled dust and <br />was always clean? <br />He was arrested and put in a police cell. When detectives came <br />to interrogate him he wasn’t there, only his thobe, which, the label <br />on the inside, read: made in China.<br /><br />oskar hansen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-magician-8/
