Sheet Music

singing fathers,

drown out children

with little or no voice

cringing in the corner of the orchestra pit

at the feet of parents

cowering

the drunk actors on stage

dialogue of cursing, spitting

the curtain falls

those small fry

caught in a net of astonishment

"Are we not supposed to be loved?"

Big fish, scaly cats

ripping skin

hearts belched out with a groan

the song is a vomitous rage

Child services is the choir

singing acappela 

pleading stars remorse in the play

booed into prison

a marginal review

they are all fired

the musical scratched

those children find enough voice

to laugh

and laugh...

“Pleading Stars remorse in the play”…, there is so much Insanity.. orchestrated .. by inviting everyone to come through our borders… then taken to different States … using our Tax money… still streaming in… a Nightmare,,. Prophesy unfolding .. the Children are our Treasure… We Cling to the Rock of Ages.., gently, Pat

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Yes, we do cling....
so much is going wrong in America for the last several years...a country in flux,

Yes.. children will laugh as the Choir sings “It came upon a Midnight Clear … “… And we also should lift our Voices to hope for a Savior to Save our World… in turmoil… to breathe fresh Air and once again Rejoice and Believe… Amen. Pat

I enjoyed this. I enjoyed the placements and position each social role was given and their place in the production. Beautifully written.
