Dream poem 113:  Bauhaus in the Halls of Versailles

She fumbles putting on an earring
it is a complicated piece of jewellery in separate elements
the Bauhaus symbols of,
square, triangle, circle.
They lock together to create a single sculptural piece
in the style of the Russian Constructivist, El Lissitzky.

It is the final test
She is feeling uncomfortable.
Working in groups,
it has been a three day test.
In their team is a bully and a misogynist.
It is just like the halls of Versailles.
