Movie Theory.


MOVIE THEORY

   Both Rhett and Schindler were war profiteers,
   And each held a girl in red most dear,
   Though each in his way very differently,
   And each self assured in his own formality,
   Without a hair out of place, in the chaos,
   So seriously that the watchers may recall,
   Best with a prayer, and kindly,
   That three dimensions may rise by two
   And salvation may be anticipated,
   Until recognized, as casually as
   Ahand of cards, but received more quickly,
   Unadorned, and with an edge.
