Blemished Stars

Standing ‘neath the spotlights Burning white and blue Calling on the muses For something real and true The theater is a sanctuary A hallowed, fertile ground Where humans mix with mystics And the ancient wise abound The poet, and the prophet The shaman, and the priest Displaying all the archetypes From the greatest to the least We’ll never tire of stories For that is what we are The theater is a universe And we its blemished stars

Thank you for your kind words Elizabeth! And by the looks of it, you write exquisitely (especially "Self Doubt")
