INTRO


after the music is over

when the lights are off

and the cast is gone

there is silence on the stage

and there is nothing.


///


tonight's plot was theirs

the audience felt it

the creaky floor was lifeless

while the creakers played God and gave it life



///

the narrator is passionate

and content at the limits of his talent

the lead is a basted ham

so let him have his fun

///

act 1

he arrives

they meet

seeds are planted

///

act 2 scene 1

reliable friendship is a given....

///

act 2 scene 2

when members of the opposite sex are best friends,
at least one of them holds feelings for the other.


///

act 3 scene 1

hook, line, and sinker

unrequited acting for an unrequited love

act 3 scene 2

tie heartshaped balloons to her and watch her float away.

///

act 3 scene 3

headwinds whisper

and a few pop.

///

a few more pop.


watch her 1000 feet from the ground, plummeting.


twist the dove's neck as it tells you it loves you.


hit the ground.

///

curtain

-with love
