Heartempty Dumpty sat on a wall
Heartempty Dumpty had a great fall
The chorus did sing
an aching refrain
Is it enough?
Is it enough?
Is it enough?
Drops of acid rain
drilling a hole in my brain
The audience whispers one to another
No…no…NNNNOOOO……
n………………o…………….o……nooooooo
My heart is rent in two
and three and four and twenty
How can I become whole again
with this Humpty Dumpty torture?
How can I embrace both chorus
and tittering audience?
I will bow deeply to both
for their magnificent performance
Bravo! Bravissimo!!
Well done, YOU.
For you have given me
that double secret gift
I asked for long ago
The experience
of being
alone in spirit
adrift in limitation
awash in doubt
Thank you! Thank you!
Now let us
together
reture to the
after-theater party
at Awakenings
Shhhhhhhh…….don’t tell………
the other plays are still going…………………..
