Curtain Call

Fellas, put your hands together

What other maiden beknownst to you

is fit to serve a show of such magnitude?
Assured amply  

much unforeseen, this altitude of a spectacle
Not a whimper of chance wail over the cosmos, 
so swift it pounced, that even so

your jittery legs forget to take leave,

oh, poor hapless soul!
Like leafless falls and sunless summers
Of lifeless haste, your heart took race,

without your corpse-less corpse, dear lover.

Sneak a glance down over your towering faults
Quite a theatrical conclusion, 

as the curtain falls.

To start off with a bang, shall we
that you pay for my griefs

this I guarantee.
 

They're cheering,

they're clapping
but hold the applause.
A mess here we made
How dramatic it was.
But keep it together,
we're not finished yet
The story's just starting
but for you, it's the end
How funny is that?
That for you it's the end.
