Old paint
Flaking off the chipped battered door
Exposed to the rain, wind, snow and sun.
Hinges creaking
So non-descript
But
The other side of which
many actors’ careers begun.
Step Inside
for a World transformed
Another dimension seen
Created illusions of Drama displayed
Of lives which
Could have been.
Let your mind fly away
Absorbed by actors treading the boards
and by the created scene.
Minds spellbound
by the creation of Drama
The audience cheering for more
An illusion portrayed in front of them
By actors
Who walked in through that old stage door.
