we will walk right through that door!
Five six seven eight -
who do we appreciate?
Balance.
Sierra is growing so fast.
He's much better now
than he was when I found him.
And he and Mab are so cute when they play.
I'm so glad I could help them.
Also,
at rehearsal today,
I saw a man in the audience.
I couldn't make out his face,
since he was sitting way in the back,
in the dark.
I don't think anyone else noticed him.
He didn't say anything,
he didn't wave when I did,
and by the time we were done and leaving,
he had gone.
The way he walked
seemed almost familiar.
Almost doglike.
But I only saw it for a moment,
as the tails of his coat
swished out the door.
I was so intrigued,
I checked the security footage.
He only showed up for a few seconds,
and seemed out of place.
In fact,
he seemed like he belonged in the play.
The way he moved,
it was almost as if
he wanted me to memorize what he looked like.
Well, I did.
A long tailcoat,
and pants so dark
you couldn't see the creases.
A dark bow-tie,
and a top hat,
with something tucked into the ribbon.
He even had a monocle
and cane,
and a thick, gold pocket-watch and chain.
The strangest thing about him
was that he had a cigar in his mouth,
but not lit -
he was just chewing on it.
He was a bit heavy-looking,
but mostly very athletic-looking.
Then he tipped his hat to the camera,
and disappeared.
I asked some of the other cast members
if they knew anyone like that.
Something was bugging me.
I knew him.
The way he walked,
the way he moved,
even the way he stood.
The next time I see him,
I won't wait.
I'll rush after him.
I'll remember who he is.
Maybe
I'll even get an outfit like his.
It was simply fabulous.
I loved it.
