A Comedy of Errors Date Written 18/10/2007 <br /> The whole world is a stage <br />I am, but, an errant actor <br />Who refuses to learn her lines. <br /> <br />A wannabe writer of her own play, <br />Theatrical themes, plays within plays. <br />I call to the cowering cast: <br /> <br />Observe the petty producers <br />Pushing pointless purposes.. <br />We follow.. <br />We act. We fluff. We shine. <br />We DIE... <br /> <br />And all the time we crave the apathetic applause. <br />The show must go on <br />Despite nobody watching. <br />Mimetic mirrors muzzle our minds. <br />Producers choose directors, <br />Directors choose actors, <br />Actors choose props.. <br /> <br />Made and sold by those same producers <br />Who bought the writers.. <br />Of this comedy of errors.<br /><br />Clare McWilliams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-comedy-of-errors/
