The art of performing

by Keg - Leo

In theory
it is quite simple
but, in reality
there could be nothing further from the truth.

First, pick an art you wish to perform.
Do you wish to dance the light fantastic
Or Sing with the angels
Perhaps an act is more your cup of tea.

Second, practice, practice, practice, practice
practice, practice, practice and...oh...practice.
If you wish
Get help from a professional, but be prepared for pain.

Thirdly, pick a piece to perform.
Perhaps a dramatic concerto from Beethovens' hands
Or a monologue fit for Thora Hord.
Maybe the Swan lake ballet is more suitable.

Fourthly, and finally, focus
Bring up the courage, go to the loo
Breath once...Breath Twice
There, you are now ready to perform.
