You can’t see it
but it’s there
a world of action
love death laughter guerre
***
He said it with aplomb
she whispered with disgrace
everything as it should
every line in it’s place
***
Did you see it?
I think not
for in the wings
we did a lot
***
The illusion
is so grand
for the house
after they stand
***
and for us
we smile with grace
for without us
things would be duly out of place
***
the theater
would be just old boards
the cast
costumed by the hoards
***
it is us
those wearing black
you never see us
we will be back
***
for every show
you take the bow
thespians back stage
we are you now
