Thinking about cash.
Buried in been-done-before.
Creation needed.

Identity confused.
Apologies, we're not film.
How to pay the bills?

Foundation Shifting:
This is Social Climate Change.
Connect and Renew.

And so it is:
What once was no longer is.
Let's go play outside.

Go ahead and whine
It has always been this way
I'll just keep working

Tennessee Williams
Brecht Beckett Vogel Durang
All write for theatre

Movie star casting
Is ruining Broadway Shows.
The stock market blows.

Two for you.

Unending nightmare:
"Where can I rent a theatre?"
Please let me wake up.

and

Time is cyclical.
Haven't we been here before?
Just go do a show.

Restless audience
Looks to the movies for thrills
So, add more zombies

A musical based

Closed Peoria.
Caught beating on a dead horse.
