An Ex-Child Star Blogs...
2006-Jul-22 by Laughcalvin
An interesting entry from a blog by Alicia Goranson, ie. Becky on the "Roseanne Show". Is this poem referring to her experience in the spotlight??? Read the comments of the entry for some interesting info.
The zoo baboon
awakens to fruit
tossed by the uniformed,
scowls at onlookers
on the other side
of the glass.
Power, imprisoned,
resists and adapts
to canned Nature;
Instinct, thrown upon itself,
may roar at the sun
or scratch in boredom.
While hundreds snap photos,
bang and shout
at the glass--
is he ever truly seen
or is it a primate mirror
we take home with us?

Many people forget that stars are people too. Some people can take the limelight and some can't. I feel sorry for those who can't.

i'm not sure if you're referring to her when you say "some cant..." but in her case, i think she is one that has come through remarkable well. she stil has her sense of humor about her.
