You Are A Selfless Actor
You are a selfless actor,
playing humanity’s most challenging character.
There seems to be nothing
particularly special, redeeming
or noteworthy about you.
Your selfless actor plays you brilliantly.
Nobody else could do it so convincingly.
To believe you’re so run of the mill,
so average, so powerless, so worthless.
so humble, so graceful in every delusion.
You are an everything
who believes you’re a nothing.
Yet somehow you don’t believe it yourself.
You are a selfless actor,
playing — yes, playing —
the most difficult role possible,
and seeming not to enjoy it one bit.
Because that’s what you do.
You are a selfless actor.
And we are Space Monkey.
