Skillful, Subtle Acting Needs No Words

Their eyes say it all --


“You know, he knew you.
Your pal, your buddy, your Bucky.
He remembered you. I was there.
He got all weepy about it.”

Such subtlety -- the pause,
the slight narrowing of his eyes,
the small step forward as he sees
Old Steve on the park bench.
No words are needed.

That fading smile and rueful pursing
of his lips at the end --
