I'm A Bagel
Day 16 of 50 days of haikus inspired by songs
They say I'm too much
I know that they're not enough
I keep shining bright!!!
Today's poem is inspired by Barbra Streisand's I'm the Greatest Star from the movie Funny Girl. If you don't know the movie, my title comes from a line where Fanny (played by Barbra) describes herself as "a bagel on a plate full of onion rolls" when comparing herself to more conventionally attractive women.

Finally realizing I need to start acting like the main character in my own life. Writing helps me figure out where I keep losing the plot and giving away my spotlight. My story is a big mix of drama, comedy, tragedy, thriller, and, horror.
