A Play Today!

We're putting on a play today.
A play today, about today.
What shall we put in our play today?
We must put a play in our play on today because...
There is a play today!

But my dear, you are the star!
Our greatest actor with all the best parts!
You have the happy lines and the sad lines.
The monologues and internal thoughts.
The simple scenes and clever plots.

Ah my love, I am no actor at all!
I've never liked the crowd you see.
All those eyes watching scare me you see!
Rhetoric and prose are not my forte afterall!
I think I shall fly then and see just how far...

She's gone my friends! Our star is gone!
The poison she drank and the wounds within,
she's fallen my friends into the darkest of sleeps.
What shall we do without a star now?
How ever shall we save our play?

Well, you see, I'm the narrator and I tell the story.
I will tell the story of today. A tragedy it is you see.
All about the play today, the play about today, today.
A tragedy so complex and beautiful no one can appreciate the subtle way it shapes itself.
In every day of this today it molds and churns in subtle ways!
The catch you see, is not the death, but the birth resulting in our tragedy.
For, you see, her life has left her body, but in it we have our story!

A play today, about today, is on today.
We have no star, as you can see...
Will you be the star of today's story?
