A Minor Part in a Major Play

Originally posted on Underground Energy:

I have played minor parts in major plays and major parts in minor plays, but mostly I have played major parts in major plays. So, in audition #876,032 I would just like to say that I don’t need much. A minor part in a major play is enough.

Take #1:

A soft pillow underneath your head

A wrapped blanket to keep you warm

The vast backdrop of the night sky

A light to keep you safe from harm

The strength to live another day

An ardent hug when times are hard

A patie...
