points for best acting!no


points for best acting!

no truth, just script

which I'll read from  forever

and forever equipped.

 

and ill trend the best costumes

feather boas and all

i'll take heed to the audience

stiff in awaiting like dolls

 

but when i find that my...plot

 will no longer suffice

ill create a new one

THIS one will entice.

 

now no one likes reading

its too dull, too bland

so ill make it a movie

lower the prices of stands

 

its a show that will please

im abnoxiously loud

we'll walk off linking elbows

though i miss my first crowd...

 

they applauded and cheered

they boomed with great pride

for that girl on the stage

had good critics by her side

 

she'd curl up on the couch

warm coffee and books

she'd entagle in a world

where its not all about looks.
