The Performance of A Life

As I stand presently absent in the midst of concentrated confusion,
Listening to the chaos of poetry evolving in my brain
Looking out in awe of an ovation of an empty theatre
At the close of an Opera of One
My eyes observe the sea of vacant seats
That have been filled by people with more important things to do
An afterthought of what could have been
Maybe even what should have been
While performing in the here and now
But realizing that in the end
My perspective, my happiness, my LIFE
Are about my decisions, thoughts and dreams
And not those of the crowd.
