Hello soubrette!
No, its evident
the mask is worn
the make-up, unsullied
the back stage meticulously white washed..
And the actors play -
their parts..
But definitely not,
to perfection!
No, its evident
no one enjoys the show
but then they all say,
"It was incredible! encore!"
But the clock ticks away
the mask gets torn
the make up cracks- reveals wrinkles..and wounds,..
And the white wash dissipates..
Yes, its evident!
Still, they act.
