NaPoWriMo - Shakespeare Day 15


Bottom

You silly ass, you dumb ass brute.

You clumsy cad, you inept mute.

The woods alive, you run amuck

And spellbound by the merry Puck.



Unique in spirit and in cast.

Your love while true, it will not last.

A weaver same in all but name

Has woven their spell; begun their game.



To the woods you rehearse your lines.

While fairies play along in time.

Your friends deserted you now gone.

Leaving you to Titania’s song.



While true love blossoms and doth grow

And attentive fairies wait your woes.

When Oberon at last does see

His Queen Titania attending on thee.



The spell once real has now been broken

Your doting Tatiana was now awoken.

Her eyes are filled with dread and loathing

It’s not you she’ll be betrothing.



The players right new lines and you

The leading part, play oh so true

And pure of heart. Though this may pass,

Bottom, you’re always a silly ass.
