William Shakespeare similarly quoted, "the world is stage, we are merely actors."
Some say Jesus is
really God
the father and son
are together one
Some figure
neither or none
But the moon
can't play the sun
I'm playing me
the image in the mirror
that I see
When I first arrived
I wasn't given a script
I had to learn and
quickly get hipped
before I got
totally scripted
Dad played a man
until he had children
and responsibility
Then his role turned to
deadbeat with hostility
Some play the role
of human being
but
they'd be better off
playing nothing
