Macbeth in Macbrooklyn

a parody on the quote from Macbeth with a commentary on our society today

Setting is a nail salon in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn

Dominique you di-int call me like yuh said you would, remember...

To-morra n to-morra n to-morra
and don't get in my face, today like yiz did yestaday
Fuh the last time and fuh the record
I did not try to take your place at the club yestaday, yuh fool
that was Angelique, to the death, I sweah. burn a candle in my hand
Jist yestaday I says, “Life is too friggn short to get so worked up over this here fool action”
Don't get your panties and feathers so twisted here n during our girls hour
I don't want to hear this no more, It's a friggin tall tale
By some nimrod, full of piss n fury
Meaning, n I'm sayin this hear for real, Life's too short sis this means nothin.

The Original...

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death.
Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,And then is heard no more.
It is a taleTold by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
