Love Sonnets

Here are dozens of enthusiastically received soliloquies from two plays by Charles Mee: Things Women Say and Stuff Guys Say. As one of the guys says:


"There was a time long ago, in prehistoric times

when cicadas were human beings

back before the Muses were born.

And then when the Muses were born

and song came into being

some of these human creatures were so taken by the pleasure of it

that they sang and sang and sang.

And they forgot to eat or drink

they just sang and sang

and so,

before they knew it,

they died."
