A Poem: the movie




A Poem


can stray like a hair on a cardigan

curl like an ear, insouciant, clean

can close like a mouth, thinly

and deepen those lines going nowhere

or coming from nowhere and finding

the lips there, for much is made of lips 

can howl like that mouth left alone in the house

can open like a wrist

This fascinated me, Mary. I've heard about that xtra normal text to movie, but not tried it. Is it easy to do? Just adds an extra fillip to one's blog site, don't you think? ("One's" I sound like Prince Charles)
