The Hamlet Project

Ghostie drops a little bomb right here.
If this line were the trailer to the movie,
It would reveal a key plot point
Before anyone could see it.
It seems like a sort of accidental spoiler,
Like he didn’t mean to reveal this bit to Hamlet at first.
He has a speech from here. It might even be a prepared speech. There is a certain
Orderliness to it, a stentorian preparedness, a rhetorical announcement
To what he is about to say.
But what he says here
Feels like it just slips out –
Like a mouse out of a hole
That scurries quickly back in
But that once it’s out,
You can never quite forget.
