Traveling Troupe of Players
(When Things Go Worse)

When you show up to rehearse
remembering neither word nor verse,
it does no good to rave and curse,
to wring your hands and throw your purse;
for though your cast mates might grow terse,
just remember, it could be worse.
You could be riding in a hearse!

(Written from the backseat of my sister’s car on the way to pick up my friend at the airport. My other friend missed her flight by 2 minutes due to looooooong lines, so if you’re flying this Christmas, get to the airport an hour earlier than usual.  She’ll now be here 3 1/2 hours late!)
