LINE, PLEASE!
(Haiku in five stages, addressing the ages)

If life is a stage,
And all mankind mere players,
Who's performing now?

Someone, cue me please!
I'm not sure what I should say.
Understudy, help!

No rehearsals here.
Who says I must act my age?
I would rather not.

Costume crisis here!
Danger! Wardrobe malfunction.
Hope that camera's off!

Don't need star billing.
Please, just let me stick around
For the final act.
