What is talent?

An actor calls once again
To ask me what
Talent is.

Talent is
The ability
To see ahead of time -
I think so when I'm 11.

Talent is the ability to
Push for your needs and goals -
When I'm 20.

Talent is the ability
To empathise with people and cold read them -
At the age of 25.

Talent is the strength to follow your vision -
When you're 30.

Talent is the ability
To create loopholes and whirlpools
That are made of time -
So it stops when you wish

But at this point
You lose
The last signs
Of humanity.

To the Edinbugh Fringe Festival and the beautiful diversity of Toulouse which I've seen and the Montreal grace I can only imagine.
