Title | Leo’s Yawning Masterclass 4
His poker face: indifference sculpted in fur.
Here is the poker face. No whisker moves, no flicker of emotion. Just indifference, sculpted into fur. My mother has returned to her seat, resuming the drama with Leo, and I am left in the middle, pleading with a sphinx. His silence is louder than any yawn. It says: “I do not care. You are beneath my notice.” This is the hardest moment for any artist — when the muse withdraws, when inspiration refuses to answer. And yet, I know this is part of the ritual. The poker face is not the end. It is the test. If I endure it, if I remain humble, perhaps he will return to me.
