Ebullient

we are all the stars in our own little movies.
but I am figuring out that I make a better sidekick
than a centerpiece, a better wing man than a star.

I am happy to be the funny friend,
not glamorous or good-looking, but certainly not ugly,
just regular with a simple sub plot.

make the joke and get out of the way;
that is what I am good at, not a moral compass,
just a clever clue and a cheers at the end, if I live.
