the mystery play
by Lauren D'Auria

Jesus the behind the scenes you
stands behind the curtain
with but a rip down the center
and uses us as your mouth and your body
the controller of the strings smiles
as people applaud our elegance
when yet we are only a tool
to show the radiance of you
there is no intermission in this play
the play continues
every act in the mind of the writer
scenes are seen beforehand
and played and replayed in his head
the title of the play
does not reflect the finale
did you read the program?
