“Steve, You know how this works- Lay there quietly until they come get us, then be a monkey”

Written for The Haunted Wordsmith’s daily prompt challenge and Linda G. Hill’s one line Wednesday prompt.
The stub is split as you begin your retreat
Your world left outside as you seek to find seats
Others surround you in this collaborative quest
An escape from one’s life with all of its tests
You’ve heard of this place with its gateways to amaze
And it’s artists within who invite you to their charade
The food for your journey feels synonymous with this time
Exploded ears bucketed never tasted so sublime
Curtains pull back tingling your reactions
The suspense of the debut grows with each attraction
It’s arrived in your sight as the lights are dimmed slowly
A showtime of wonder that unites all from loved to the lonely
