Born to one
But I want to live
a thousand lives.
Owner of one
But I want to bank
A million I’s.
Today I could be
A fierce virago.
Tomorrow
A Sacrificing widow.
Maybe then
A lovely maiden
Having played
A wrinkled nun.
Let me live them all
All in one,
In one little life.
What else would
God be like?
Living a thousand lives…
Would he not be just
Another actor?
An actor like
us all?
A talented actor
Maybe.
A heart for all?
With compelling need
To know us all?
What else would God Be?
Than a mere actor?
