caracter in the making

by clay - Aries

The stool is
                      center stage

benches waiting empty
this is one appointment
the gods will not keep
and i seek no answers for
                     
                   faults,failures 
             imperfections and impurities

of acts i have played out

this is life, on cue and ever ready

i never give demons
reasons to believe
in singed wings
or broken
                     fairy tales


onward, upward and on with the show

                                    set stage right

        left to next scene

and i will not begin
each day with rehearsal 
i excepted this roll 
                      at birth

Reason for writing:

    pretty self explanatory really
