and all the men and women merely players? <br /> <br />All the bustle! We dare not stall. <br />Curtains rise and curtains fall; <br />where are our hearts? We dare not look. <br />Trampled somewhere underfoot. <br /> <br />Men and women everywhere; <br />hide the daggers in your stare! <br />For the curtains cover not our hearts <br />Hush, be still; and let 'Life' start. <br /> <br />With it the glamour, with it the pain <br />(oh, we actors are insane!) <br />rise the velvet curtains now. <br />Show business; what it's all about. <br /> <br />We play it now, we played it then <br />regardless of our age. We <br />played this game of 'Life' because <br /> <br />'All the World's a Stage'.<br /><br />Ballerina With Fins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/all-the-world-s-a-stage-2/
