Drama Junky

Drama junky,
living in a ghetto-land crack motel,
invisible, intractable,
driving someone's else's car:
When you gonna learn
you can't live forever
in your own John Ford film?

Drama junky,
with your mystic eyes
and predilection
for slumming it,
when will you stop testing
the limits
of propriety?

Drama junky,
you coulda been a contender,
but you chose to be a contester,
to eat rocks
and wrestle lions
instead of lounging at the pool
of other peoples' labors.

Drama junky,
my hard headed drama junky,
did you really want
to surrender your body
to hard labors
in your old age
just to make your puerile point?
