RE: A Dead Poems Society Production, Round 5, Contest and Community Building

in #contest • 6 years ago

Since this is “Dead Poems Society,” loosely inspired by the Robin Williams film, Dead Poets Society, I’m going to share my spoken word memoriam composed after he passed. It's entitled, “Laugh Clown… Laugh.” https://steemit.com/poetry/@momzillanc/laugh-clown-laugh-spoken-word

      Your naked soul ... naked for the joke,
      Spilled ... spilled ... until your heart breaks.

      Images that discover the nature of the person who is honored. I like the intensification achieved with repetition. You did a wonderful job, @momzillanc

        Precarious… you teetered ‘pon the precipice.
        Played out your suffering ‘pon the stage,
        Lights… camera… the pedestal… your cage.

        A really superb piece of work, Denise:) Brava.

            Heart moving.

            But I am Pagliacci.

            There are some who get laughs and some who give laughs

            and there are some who give their lives

            Nanu Nanu

              And there are too many of us who don’t notice those giving their lives. Thanks.
