Memorizing the Deja Vu Script

Memorizing The Deja vu Script
David J Walker

It was only a dream 
wasn’t it?
Going over my lines from
Script provided
In a thick book typed in
Double space
Trying to make sure I am on the 
Right page, the right day, the 
Right play, and  I am standing
In the right place 
And if I mess up, do they CUT
And start over? 
Will the director scowl and 
Shout what an idiot I am while
I melt into a Deja vu mess knowing
I’ve been here before 
Why can’t I get this right?
But
It was only a dream,
Wasn’t it?
