Frustrated Actor Slam

I studied to be an actor And after graduating Auditioned for everything Yet couldn't even land a bit part But as of yesterday I am officially the back end Of Donkey ass in a local production Of Shrek doth Shakespeare I guess this what they mean when they say starting at the bottom Or maybe this is sign that i have chosen the wrong career path And that my vocation is not rooted in the arts

so clever. You got to love Bottom in Midsummer Night's Dream. The wrong career path cracks me up, pardon the pun. Very cleverly constructed this poem and if you are, fantastic...you'll have to post the video from the play. What a star...and might I add no typos, or spelling errors. ;) cool poem. x
