The stage curtains
Soft curtains frame the little stage. Sonnet draws them back whenever a poem is ready to be heard.
The teapot
The teapot is still warm from the last cup. Sonnet says that is essential for reading slowly.
The pen
A pen stands ready on the table. No deadline comes with it, which Sonnet considers a kindness.
The open book
A book lies open with its pages full of other people's first lines. Sonnet thinks yours will join them.
