watching the actors

[harraser]

Watching all these noisy little worlds
Spinning around their lunch break
The thought pops into my head
"I love humanity"
After all, what a rediculous joke
The human life is
Each of us living in a different world
Completely and utterly convinced
These little dramas
That we act out every day
Really matter
And that if our world stops
So will eveyone elses.
And I cant help but wonder
If all this is real.
I try and try to get into their heads
Just to see whats there,
To see if they really are as unthinking
As their (almost choreographed) movements make them seem
For so long now Ive felt I dont belong,
Like an outsider thats stepped
Onto the set of a movie
Where all the actors know the script
But Im on the spot, improving lines.
Have any of these people ever questioned the script?
Ever refused to speak a line?
Ever forced the story to change?
I guess not
They dont even know theyre acting.

I like your work, I think that you have a very good point, do these people ever realize what a life they have given to them,
keep up the good work
