Show’s over folks
nothing to see here
at least until that next curtain call
so please move along

Leave them for the meantime
in what can seem an eternity
the rest between heartbeats
with a smile...laugh
sometimes a frown
scratching their heads
at something we said
as they peel their oranges
though we ourselves
may be torn up inside
our own health
should never be an issue
albeit always at the heart of the matter

The show must go on
but for the intermissions
barely time to catch one’s breath
before that next Hoorah!
