I've decided to write a play
And I think it has potential
But then again, I think all my failures do
Nevertheless I really like this one
Though I figure-
It's going to get really pretentious really fast
So I'd like to remove myself a tad
Though the subject matter requires the literal opposite
But I don't want something inaccessible prancing around a stage
Sincerely, I don't
But I want the smoky stage smell and no fourth wall
And I want it to be beautiful
But I don't want however-long of "Ask me what it means!"
So that'll be quite the challenge, but I like this idea
I think it might work since I'm approaching it as poetry
And when I've written plays in the past
I think they sucked since I tried to make them so structured and linear
I'm not all that good at that
But as you can see
I can vaguely monologue on my own for hours on end
In written form
So I may as well try to be productive it
Besides
My beautiful huge and newfound ambitions
Which I'll tell you about soon enough, I promise
Will positively require this
So if I can get a jump start and figure it out
Before I set out again for the glorious vast yonder
It'd be helpful
Since the theater is my church
And it'd be nice to try my hand at writing my own homily
