My Monday Metrical Musings #288

microphone inside an auditorium

Audition

He drowns in his dream
An exquisite extreme
I’m singing in the rain
And happy again

Those are feelings
I desire to invoke
As I take part once more
In an audition

Once every decade
That’s my record
Wondering if again
I’ll be so fortunate this decade

To get up on a stage
And release my inner thespian
In an all-male musical audition call
That came serendipitous

A monologue
A pop song
A musical number
To dance along

Will I be able
To pull them all off?
Or fall flat on my face…
O wait, it’s to be pre-recorded

Not half as much stress
Nor half as fun
Than being live on stage
Doing my rehearsal run

O well, at least I’m about
To get my shot this decade
And if the past four are any
Indication then I think

I have a fighting chance to
Make my dreams come through
One more time before
I retire from drama triumphant!

[Wish me luck ok?]
