My Cue
I read my lines, I don’t miss a single cue
I take my direction from her and you
Rehearsed, rehashed my tepid lines I say
In life’s sad unfolding, unforgiving play
Drama, comedy and a villainous foe
Suspense builds as pain steals the show
Well I break her heart in act three
Or will it be you I say I cannot see
The director calls “action” one more time
And my tears punctuate my pale last line
But I cannot stand applause as curtains fall
Goodnight world this is my final curtain call!
This is both sad, and very passionate. Me, being in the theater world, can relate totally to this poem.. Thank you for your passion and heartfelt sadness...
Peace, Love, and Light,

Love Tinka :(
Your mind is playing games with thee'
Good luck deciding!
when the curtains raise up again!
Deep lasting metaphors!
I love this poem, and great title!

I love those lines and I'm grateful life doesn't have to be that way. We are born and taught by society to act and perform a certain way, but as individuals we always have a choice and I'm afraid I'm about as nonconformist as they come. Abiding by the laws of the land is one thing, becoming a puppet something else. I'm sure there is probably a lighter meaning behind this...that I'm not getting, but I'm taking it as I read it. As always I enjoyed. Elizabeth
Who are they kidding?
That final curtain are bring down with the great pain of all.
It falls after once on your life performance.
When tears are falling without the applause it is not time to take a bow but to try again until a Life's standing ovation is heard.

at first i thought perhaps it was what you said but im not sure that works or is all you said so im slightly puzzled.
i like the way you question
will i break her heart in act 3...?
it seems like such a careless question in some ways but then... if you KNEW you were gonna do it would you avoid that act perhaps? or maybe rewrite it or even just improv on the night and make something completely else up... i dont know...
but its an interesting question...
Not every body get'z a final call or a cue real only a special few but i get your scribe & already took My cue.
No skinny dick'z or fat lady'z sing'n or standing ovation & nah applause.
For I AM not in love with been'n famously famous for infamy last 4 eva & 4 eva beat'z 15 minute'z.
I AM just that 4 eva.
Love'n'Light
Blessed Be ! ! !
