And Turn The Speakers Up.

THIS IS MY LOT, BEAUTIFUL STRANGERS.

Saturday, June 10, 2006

& when you're done, just before the curtains go down

Won't you take a bow and smile?

You know the crowd loved you- they loved you, I could tell.

This season you played the biggest role in town;

In bitter broadway, in the dimming of the lights

You danced like the dead leaves we saw the other day.

Almost like in pretence, like there was life in death

And Death in Life.

When you sing you'd hear the echo like a thousand resounding.

Then fly, fly like you could in April's autumn,

& take the world by storm and forget his eyes.

Fly,because you were the thespian playing Shakespeare's Fool-

The one who played his mind with his heart,

& in this script,

Ate his heart out in two.
