Notes About The Poem

                                             

Lamar the No Drama Llama

The theatre is open, acting tactics keep it in theatrics 
Making a scene says Lamar llama, is for stage queen drama
The theatrical kind we see and hear, save it for Shakespeare
The easy life isn’t enough for some no, they go, on and on
Wherever from, the USA or all the way to the United Kingdom
Some folks only exist, to insist on creating a bit of drama

I see Linda Alice below verb-less yet ernest Gershon urges angst on..I'm ambivalent maybe Thats heaven sent? I note an understated drama 'that hinges on a Llama ? What if it is reposessed by the farmer ? A hideous non- charmer.? Whaf is left then to garner? But some Wool al la Llama.' Back

I'm suggesting long walks and yoga, but you're quite a riot GW. "To angst or not to angst" Thank you!

Apt roles for Lamar, McBeth and King Lear. Poets are known for their mutual and petty rivalries, viscous barbs, nothing new under the sun. Suggest long walks and yoga! Best wishes, Robert

While I enjoy a film that has comedy and drama, I'm not a fan of those who enjoy center stage in real life. (Low self-esteem is the cause of such). In truth, it's very sad. I'm one that truly enjoys films of romance. (As my poetry reflects). You've created a masterpiece, Anaya. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Thank you for reading from Sara's short stories, Anaya. She writes some poetry, but her novel and her memoirs have been her main writing. Sara said to thank you for reading her writing. Smiles ~ Blessings from the Bakers p.s. She's been published is a dozen of the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" books.

Love your Lamar llama Anaya, she’s very pragmatic and not one for theatrics, but I do get a hint she’s spitting a little distaste out at someone, llama’s are known for it, spitting that is lol, do I need a visor, good one, cheers David

This is inspired by drama we all share once in a while, in general and I'm not condoning or condemning anyone. I love PS its a warm and caring environment.

Your safe here, but it wouldn't hurt. Lamar will spit at any opportunity; you know the type that overreacts to everything and has to make a big fuss over the tiniest thing. They drag others onto the chaos, ha ha ha. Thank you, David glad you enjoyed!
