Parts
I'm an artist without a muse to capture
Painting with no brush or sense of the soul
Sparking fire without a fuse or ember
Still I perceive a portrait that's whole
I'm an actor without the lines or stage
Emoting with no mind for this part isn't right
Playing the lead which is out of my range
Anxiously waiting for opening night
I'm a poet without a rhyme assured
Prosing pith with no clear conceit to state
These thoughts of mine have become so absurd
What is it I'm saying then if I elaborate
I am...I am...I have no idea who I am
Not an artist, actor, nor poet. A sham
