You play your part pretty well

Hamlet… little hamlet

You are the perfect actor

Enacting his own life until

You don\'t know

Which

Is the real self.

You haven’t decided yet, haven’t you.

And still I can’t help asking you on and on

If you have managed

To answer

The question. Have you?

Can you illuminate us all?

Can you be our

blue-eyed

suicidal

irreligious

duplicitous

Saviour?

No?

no. no. no.no.

Little hamlet closed upon himself looking at the world in a mirror

too tired

Not wanting to face

The TRUTH.

You know your part by heart

& you perform it eloquently bitterly brilliant

Man

But behind this mask there’s

Another hamlet

And another

Intoxicating

Tempting

Addictive

But unreal.

So. What’s your answer to the question?

no. no. no. no.
