waiting to be discovered

i know a few actors.
dramatic actors.
degrees in drama, but
they don't work.
they do house chores, while
the wife
works.
they cut the grass,
make stews in the kitchen.
they change
the sheets,
dust, mop,
vacuum. 
they watch tv.
the calls aren't coming in.
they walk around
the house
practicing lines
from Shakespeare.
to be or not to be.
they look out the window,
to see how the dog
is doing,
they pray to the heavens,
with dramatic flair,
will 
someone please 
discover me.
