A Broadway Audience
Go to a Broadway show; take a look
At the people who fill up the seating,
A mixture of tourists from thither and yon,
All together, with few of them meeting.
The old and the young, the fat and the thin,
The foreigners from varied places,
The blonds and the bald, the braids and the curls,
The smiles or the frowns on the faces.
No matter the crowd, when the theater goes dark,
They’re united in their expectation
That the show they’ll be seeing is worth it and will
Earn a well-deserved standing ovation.
