Hold and listen, |
|
Something is missing from the celluloid; |
|
Where actors, permissive, |
|
Hold their positions in pixels to blur the lines between |
|
The real and the scene. |
|
We steal the motion from the act, |
|
Picturesque in photographs; |
|
Where all of my dreams suddenly to sate |
|
(All the dreams that fall between the frames within a film) |
|
Have we been exposed? |
|
Developed for sale and show? |
|
We isolate the things we can't keep our eyes from. |
|
Are you so alone? |
|
You're in too soon to know, |
|
You fold. |
|
I'll trade my youth for white lights |
|
And black suits |
