Role assigned to: Katie Otten

This character is in deep mental pain, on the verge of tears in her voice yet still able to speak calmly and slowly. Subtle emotional projection is the key focus here, as this poem comes from a tormented soul looking for permission to break down.

  • I am writing this on a thin paper napkin,

    In a crowded old diner,

    Yet I am slowly drowning at sea.

  • I had been lost in these depths before,

    And it seems Poseidon wants me to go deeper and deeper,

    Until my feet touch the ocean floor.

  • But lighthouses can’t be moved by word nor plea,

    And neither can you,

    So sinking I shall be.
