New Year

Part of farewell performance to close the 'world's smallest theatre.
Isle of Mull, Scotland

New Year
1/1/11

Four 'ones' in abbreviated date
speak to truly fresh start,
also to who comes first,
ideally each individual as participant,
star celebrity, taking lead role
in movie created by oneself,
written, directed, acted confidently upon,
choosing sets, co-stars, dialogue between
depending circumstances and decisions made,
overall fluctuating as comedy, tragedy,
thriller, documentary, fiction and non-fiction,
based on reality, intermixed dreams,
with love story elements included,
depicting protagonist, antagonist as diversely
moving through victim, villain, hero,
touching upon life's archetypal structures,
struggles, what constitutes our existence,
wondering how much personal power
I'll claim in New Year.
