many parts

All the world's a stage,

and all the men and women merely players:

they have their exits and their entrances;

and one man in his time plays many parts...

-william shakespeare


and as of now, i play the part of a graduate student. 
reading; writing; coughing up worthless television spec's; graduate student.
perusing Variety and Nikki Finke for the latest scuttlebutt on the industry. 
and that's what gets me, i suppose:
how quickly a man can change.
how quickly he can drop his pack and assume a different identity. 
just like that. 
POOF! 

a scene change for some. 
and for others-the curtain falls.
the audience leaves , the set goes quiet.
a spider builds it's house up in the corner, near the lights.
