Showtime
Before birth, curled
in a pool of stars,
we recite the litany
of our histories of passage
and dream about light
from behind sealed eyes.
We can be reborn any day -
postage paid to paradise.
Welcome yourself with open arms,
to Saturday morning breakfast
in a sun strewn lounge.
Stop searching for an airlift out,
thinking with the dial-up access
of the unprepared and do-not-dare's.
Play like you're in a paint-ball game -
let the bruises fade and book a rematch.
There's no rehearsal for this sit-com series,
it's opening night on 'The Best Show Ever.'

Thought provoking and self examining to the nth degree kid, this is an excellent piece.
thanks bunny. I like the first two strophes. Not so sure about the last three. Maybe they try to go in too many different directions ...
not going in too many different directions, it all flows on logically enough for this little black duck :)
Although, you are confusing me, there are only four strophes, and you like the first two,but not sure about the last three?
*teasing grin*
you are a little black duck?
!!!!
oh yeah, I forgot I edited it to four ... *blush*
Daffy duck would always say
You are not gunna get this little black duck
*sighs deeply*
I am obviously showing my age with cultural references from the sixties lol
