To Brent M. Parker's previous piece

Ev'rybody Ought to Have an Agent

Sometimes
I wonder
If God casts lives
Like network execs
Cast T.V. shows

You know,
They try
A character out
See if they work
If contract
Negotiations
Go well
They stay
If they go for a
Movie
Deal
Instead

The character's just
Gone
And the cast
Never talks about them
Again

I can't seem to get anyone
Past the recurring
Character stage

Right now
I'm looking at a one-man-show
With no audience.
