Your Job Is to Keep the Stage Door Propped Open
You’ll know you’re but a prop
In someone else’s mise en scene
When, after the photo op
And the choir’s said amen
You’re left to close up shop
Please be mindful, please be Zen
For though you’re but a doorstop
Without you they can’t get in
And you’ll always have your laptop
To see them grin and spin
With you there in the backdrop
A star on Fox News or CNN
