Go ahead -
laugh at me!
I acknowledge I'm a fool . . .
& yet it is worth asking
should we wander past video arcades
when so many plebeians are impoverished
& many Shakespeares are starving?
Success was never an option.
This NEO DRAMA stuff –
what of it?
Must existence be so brutal
as rabid cancers spread?
If that is true
then it's time for a new vision
to awaken the undead.
Yet perhaps we should question:
Can't we be bold while performing
or will we be cowards instead?
