My Role?

Relax. Take it easy. Let it come.
Be it the universe or the One.
So much to see but I must choose
or be blindsided by the muse.

All is wonderful in the end.
Meadows on Mars round the bend.
That cancer under my shapely breast.
Think of the pyramids and get your rest.

Look at my face. Then look at yours.
Don’t we have splendid features?
Kiss one then kiss two.
Sigh, cry and be through.

Don’t tell me a thing. I’ve heard it all.
Just keep me running down a winding hall.
But if I stop don’t tell me to stay.
I’ve been there done that hey nonny nay!

For I’m an actor. Surprise me with a bit.
Tell me it’s a melodrama and I look like shit.
Don’t worry. I’ll perform as best I can.
Just give me the will to be a man.
