In the Morning Audition Poetrix

With  the window of the mind opened;
Birds yodel, and solemnly reveal,
 All universal secrets...

Premium MemberThe Choir Audition

Why does she know
laying our music down
raises musicality
reality up?

Does she also know
why my lips prefer to sing
in resonant Oh,
Oooooooh...
oozing round O's
and singular Ah's
free of mapping static lyrics

Lines sung
hung
rung right or wrong,
good marching when uniform,
bad when too shy
of improvising bold
multiculturing unity

Harmony musing
amusing spontaneous drifts
and rifts
of EarthTribe's light
bright woke-up
out loud power focus

Searching out deep whole-sum liturgies
of octaved

Audition

They examined me with tape measures in their eyes as I entered
superimposing famous female faces over my own in their minds
like pictures printed on clear plastic sheets
placing one atop another onto an overhead projector
my teachers used years ago in the classroom
contemplating the magic of makeup
the limits of lighting
I could see in their stares what I’d

Premium MemberA Poetic Happy Media Um

What I never say is  

Should be a question on a game show quiz  

Did I tell you about the time  

Standing in line  

Only to find myself most likely declined  

Since I did not have the right look  

Wanted in the casting book  

What I never say

Premium MemberTake One Off For the Scream

They all sit there lined up in a row 
Not knowing when exactly when to go 
Decisions are made on the image they are looking for 
As the applicants mumble at the door. 

Mommas got cash 
Let those pass
The Agent said 
Wondering if they knew how to play dead underneath the bed. 
 

Here comes

Six Foot Audition

Infamous girl
you sank to a grave dug with a silver spoon
infamous girl
you drag your dress across an ill fated field lit by the moon

Lure you, comfort you, f-ck you, toss you
put this cycle on repeat, spin in your own spit 

This is a damning of the innocent hearts turned noir
Bang out of your intentions, or

Monolog Audition For the New Sitcom: "desperation 101"

"I'll not hold onto scraps of paper
love notes folded origami
brain confetti from last year
I'll not hold on, (for long) my dear
I'll not hide secret dried up flowers
slips of some things 'till tomorrow
never sipping sweet fruition
for it seems, my intuition
proved me wrong again.

I'll not remember your cologne
or spray it on when you're not home
and while I'm

Everlasting Audition

People die and people live,
People take and people give.
Some take more and some take less,
standing on the line, putting their courage to the test.
Standing and waiting till that day,
where courage alone will not be there to stay.
Living life till the end,
with unexpected bends.
Do I turn right or do I turn left,
drowning in sorrow and bereft.
Internal
