Stop Acting Like A Boob

When I look in the mirror each morning
This dude stands there sending me a warning
Smarten up there dude
Stop acting like a boob
Or a lump on the head you'll be adorning

Acting Coach

The greatest teacher I have ever known
never worked in a classroom.
He was an actor and radio announcer of some renown.
A man of many talents, I'd assume.

He directed me once when I was acting in a play,
and he'd let me know - right away! -
if he didn't like the way I'd say
a certain line (sometimes to

Acting

When the minister got angry
the employees cowered
 in fear although they knew
It was just an act.

EFFORT

Effort is important in whatever you do
Knowing where to make an effort makes
All difference by consistent focus on
The result and things that's effective
Creating way for greater opportunities


When you thought you've seen it all
You've seen nothing until you've toured
The world meet with different people 
with different cultures, attitude etc 
Only then you'll know it is what

Acting on Impulse

Friendships, wordy scripts, cameras, microphones and venue blips. Call security, no need to be shirty, let's go again.. scene five, take thirty. Action. Cut. Time for tea. The bar is closed but coffee's free. The waiting patiently never ends. We chat we laugh. We're making friends. The brushes flash across my brow.. my shirt is

I Should Win an Oscar

Look at this smile on my face, do I look sad and alone.
With no one to give me love, and no one to call my own.
Can you look into my eyes, see them filled with happiness.
Would you ever realize, my life is in such a mess.

Chorus:
I should be a movie star, 
for playing this happy

AN ACTING LIFE

AN ACTING LIFE

A young, shy boy enters stage left.
The date, November ‘fifty-three.
And, though you’d not believe it now,
That shy young man was me.

I hadn’t wanted to be there,
I was convinced that I’d fall flat.
I spoke my first line nervously.
The audience laughed – and that was that!

I was hooked in that moment of magic
And knew I

Bolton's Talented Guy

Guy starred at the Octagon,
when he was just a lad,
and all the reviews.
in the Bolton News,
said that he wasn’t too bad.

His mum said it was destiny, 
his dad said it was karma,
when Guy got his kicks, 
down the A666,
at Salford studying drama.

From the Exchange to the Everyman,
he took the stage by storm, 
the London critics,

fakery

I can be a wretched fake, in private, intimate performance.

I’m an actress capable of imitating spontaneous pleasure -
by tricks of hesitation, convulsive vocal play and postures.

A mimicry undetectable to an immediate spectator.

Aww, thank you, I’ll sigh, as if leaving a good party.

“I’ve got a lot of homework to do,” I’ll add, a minute later.

The Manic Phases

Sometimes I am a shadow

Casting images upon a wall

Having no effect on life

A curiosity to all

 

Sometimes I am a rock

Moved by others pain

At times like this I wonder at the thought

That I am insane

 

Sometimes I am an animal

Drifting along at whim

Doing things without a thought

Of love of life or limb

 

At times you

Foolish Things

I do foolish things
when I’m blue
when I’m sad
and missing you
I do foolish things

like dancing all night
foolish things
drinking everything in sight
foolish things
shopping til I drop
foolish things
somehow I cannot stop

doing foolish things
when I’m blue
when I’m sad
and missing you
I do foolish things

watching ‘parks & rec’ all night
foolish things
drinking coffee until daylight
foolish things
dragging friends on crazy romps
foolish things
somehow I

Acting Like a Doctor

The disgusting side of Jack's nature
Is his bearing of Doctor's stature
A will to give medical lecture
The Doctors robe drape in bold picture...

Feel Jack would his feet for temperature,
A long bleeding stop with ligature,
An open wound evenly suture;
One's health in medical terms capture...

Jack's hands watch for feverish coldness,
When they start trembling more boldness
Something his doctor friends

Days Off- Acting Like a Genius

More Exposed, at 5.47 am I write poems like Wilt Wittman. It’s true, the first draft of anything is , all for a lasting minute.
However, creating agitated intestines involves experiences and years of discipline. At that moment, receiving text messages, “I can’t live this way”, “life’s too precious”, and “we are finished”. Towards the end

Life's a Performance

Life’s a performance, 
The world is a stage, 
There is no script to follow, 
Not even the ghost of a page, 
You can play an important part, 
No matter what your age, You can be an author, 
An actor, a director too, 
The role you take And what you do with it, 
Well – That
