The curtain has fallen
Applauses follow
Backstage, he hangs his head
He knows they were not fooled
An elderly man clasps his shoulder
And tells him he did well
The man nods his head
He says who is he
To take his place
That he cannot do it
The elderly man says
He needs to remember
His roots
Remember his parent's roots
It is a role, he needs to play
The man looks at the elderly man
And tells him he is grateful
He reminded him the show must go on
