A Mad, Jealous, Deadly Love
The magnifiscent curtains open,
Leaving statuesque figures
on a bringht stage.
Beginning with Elizabethan
and grand dress.
The words flow,
entrancing audience and players alike,
with visions of another world.
A boy stares at the players
feeling chilled and claustraphobic.
A beautiful girl makes her entrance
making the dialogue believable and realistic.
She's the best, the gem, the prized posession
of drama
The boy stares at her
a tight knot forming
in the pit of his stomache
He grips the armrests tightly
squirming in his chair
The walls close in around him.
He panics, screams
and runs up to the stage
bringing up the gun
Two shots ring out
two bodies go down
A screaming audience
A ruined play
A mad, jealous, deadly love.
