Excellent

Remember you have a job that pays and has benefits. To be a movie star is always a childhood dream. But it also has a busy life and some of them have the same headaches and problems as we do ......

Busted. I too had a wannabe dream and it festered, bloomed and pricked my skin with thorns ....................................................................................

Thank you for your share. It is an important lesson about how we when young can view things falsely but if you are determined, let the job pay your bills while you try even now. Let work fuel your passion. Don't give, not yet, not ever!

This poem is really excellent--entertaining, skillfully and creatively written with good rhyme and meter, and vividly descriptive and funny in its contrast of what was dreamed of and what HAPPENED.

Fantastic humorous poem.
The rhyming flowed so well
too. The last stanza has a
funny ending. This is really
well done. I like different
forms of poetry and a humor
poem is one of my favorites.

Are you casting aspersions on the people who fill the friggin' shelves at Walmart? :-) This is a very witty piece, but most of the people I know in the entertainment business are shallow and significantly less talented than they think they are. I'm surprised your subject gave up so easily. LOL. A very enjoyable rhyme.

Thanks P.K. I had to check that you were a fellow Brit and not an American up in the middle of the night.

A Brit?? Hahahaha.... I'm Irish. :-) But not an anti-British Irish. ;-)
