Impressions From A Distance

.
rock stars
a silly mess of men, by in large

divas
high strung
daredevils of emotional expression
...and tantrums

actors and comedians
hyper-active look-at-me-look-at-me's

dancers
strangly aloof
apparently trying to stay afloat
even when not a'dance

painters/artists
I have nothing to say of them
though I'll venture to guess
they are as flakey as the rest

and now,
for the last act of the show...

the poets
lordy! lordy! lordy!
what can I say here except
never a lovlier bunch of coconuts
have i ever encountered
ever!

(and, for any and all potential book publishers
who may, perchance, read this...
....you da' man, man!)
