First, if you can avoid it
don’t let them know what you’re doing.
Focus their attention elsewhere
while you slip to the movie player.
Mute the sound system.
Let the moment build and crank.
Unmute just as the start credits roll.
Smile when their attention breaks like a floodgate.
Enjoy that moment every time.
And when they ask, tell them
Stars Wars presents us with a choice.
We can each be Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, and Anakin Skywalker in the same moment.
Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Someone ate the breakfast toast.
