Behind The

There are many cases of
Behind the scene
Behind the closed door
Behind the closet
Behind the curtain
Behind the stage

Behind the scene
Many crews are involved

Behind the closed doors
Love, hate, fight, sorrow, laughter and vengeance
Frequently happen in every household

Behind the closet
Bones or precious gems are found

Behind the curtains
Window panes are opened widely

Behind the stage
Many crews and volunteers are working very hard

Behind every successful stories
Many writers, directors and unseen faces are strongly involved

However
Many audiences forget
Behind the scenes faces

During my observations, many audiences love to do video streaming at the expense of every video producer’s hard work. Many piracies are on the rise. I appreciate on the hard work and choose on the videos I watched. Arts are cheapened and more artists are exploited to do free work. Before piracy occurs, I enjoy buying on selected category of videos. In every purchased video, I enjoy watching and learning from behind the scenes. Wish you all have good days and thank you.

Artists in Zoo

Arts exhibition to spread message via form showcase
Content injected into artistic form
An array of visual media messages inhibited a spacious room
Display and speaks the
Past, present, and prophesied future
Own fantasy
Own imagination
Own needs
Own wish
Of tomorrow

All these put the artist in a spotlight
Beasts reluctantly lose their freedom
To spotlight in the cages of zoo
To spotlight in the circus performance
Stage and props are a cage of zoo
Artists willingly stand on the stage
To gain famous
To earn livelihood
Living another character in them

Arts gallery
Cinema
Theatre
Exhibition gallery
Television
Is where the artists are
Artists in zoo
Exhibited zoo
To entertain spectators and audience

Piling Foam Stage

Piling foam numbering pads
He climbs onto it
Treating it as the stage
Melodious songs come out of his tongue
Changing the lyrics of the songs
Making fun of the songs
Bring laughter in everyone’s hearts
Followed by many clapping

Bowing of thankfulness
At the end of his
Singing performance
Standing on the
Piling foam numbering pads
Then step down

After my 39 months son brushed his teeth, he exploded to singing using the piling foam numbering pads as his stage. My parents and I enjoyed his good singing voice.

Introvert’s Achilles Heels

“Public speaking”
“Presentation”
“Performance”
Brisk to the stage
Thump! Thump!
Heart beat increases rapidly
Lips pale out
Passing by the audio system
The audio system roars
A fierce chilling wind blows
Provokes primal fear
Sending chills into my spine

Standing on the stage
Mind goes blank
Voice turns to stutter
Feet glued onto the stage
Daunted by the listeners at auditorium
Daunted by rolling eyes to every utterances
Wobbly feet
Getting cold feet

Pause
Take a deep breath
Practice speech returns gradually
Speak out

Being an introvert, this is indeed my Achilles heel. I do tend to get cold feet on stage.

Stage Fright

Dread, Grotesque, Tense, standing fur
Are my strong senses of stage fright
As lights focuses onto stage.

Though showing a calm facade
But my heart is beating furiously with
A trembling tightly closed lips
Awaiting for my role performance reaching completion
With curtains closed the stage
Standing with other performers to give a
Thankful bowing to clapping audiences.

Suddenly, the words, “Dread, Grotesque” came as I reminisced my first and last stage participation. I can feel and sense uncountable eyes staring at me. I could not stand it so I choose not to continue the theatre play at church. Projecting slides, ushering, sound systems, joining Intercessor ministry were my preference and service in ministry.
