the stage is set.
lights turn up.
the sound of cheering breaks over the crowd.
pull back the curtain and out i go.
always fearing that certain "no."
i take my place among the cast.
never knowing if it'll last.
yet again i put on the face.
watching frantically as i pace.
this time it isn't the same.
i'm going crazy, far from sane.
i get stared down while i play.
pretending that everything's ok.
soon the curtain will far down...
and then my performance will not count.
it seems as though it never did.
that's all i got, that is fucking it.
I don't have a whole lot to write about. It seems the poetry bug has hit me. Inspiration at the most akward times. Go fucking figure.
Death Cab lyric-
My brain's repeating "if you've got an impulse let it out", But they never make it past my mouth.

Good post. Overture. Curtains. Lights. This is it, we'll hit the heights. And, oh, what heights we'll hit, on with the show, this is it.
