Life Is But A Theater Poem by Jeffery Joseph

Life Is But A Theater



Life is but a theater- as we all share a stage...
We read the same book, but we're on a different page...
Some of us practice what we see on the scripts...
Whereas others sit...down while eating chips...

But for us, we don't see progress without rehearsing...
Negative outcomes may result in us cursing...

And it's these negative things we may fall prey to...

It only takes one to sink a group into a landfill...
But if there is a team, we can move from the standstill...
Put the pedal to the metal, get it going again...
By writing instead of lying rest to the pen...

We are the actors- -our fans are always shootin'...
Constant with the move, so the schedule's ' commuting'...
Living the life of a red dot and the audience holds a gun with the bullets in...
We're tacked on their walls and the targets on their bulletin...

But we need to get passed it, even if we must pretend...
Just so we can see our transformation in the end...

Life is but a theater- as we all share a stage...
We read the same book, now we're all on the same page...

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Life is a theater, and are all performing (our talents) .
Us reading the same book refers to getting our education.
Different pages refer to different professions/passions.
A lot of us practice from our studies (scripts) , whereas others sit and get lazy.

If we don't practice, we don't ascend and we fall behind.
We then get upset and give up.

That's when we fall victim to the should've/could've/would've stories.

Next would be me expressing how it only takes one negative vibe to bring a positive group down.
But if we stay together, we can keep moving on.
Always keep moving and never stop.

We will always have people watching as we are always on the move to success.
Although fans, they can quickly shoot you down for any mistake you make.

Sometimes you need to block the media and society out so that we can continue forward so that we can continue on our path to success.

Once again, life is the theater and we are all sharing the same floor.
We received our knowledge from our education and life experiences and now fully understand the painful road to success.
