Quote by Stewart Stafford

“Proscenium Panther by Stewart Stafford The actor missed his line, Whispers from the wings, Deafening silence hanging, Another cue came briskly. A pregnant pause of years, The frozen player’s lips moved, Offstage, a mock post-mortem, The thespian grinned impishly. After the audience’s first line laugh, He racked his brain for more jokes, Flouting the text and all the cast, O, limelight, of hot-headed hydras. © Stewart Stafford, 2023. All rights reserved.”

Love lives behind what we say on the outside. It's the words we use, then, combined, With the feeling we get When we're close and confined, And the way our bodies speak With perfect design.”
