The Web Poetry Corner - Marq T. Laube - This Movie

This Movie

by

Marq T. Laube

listen: a hum,
a rumble, a roar
a human voice,
a soft sweet song,
a sudden breath,
a car horn

look: a scattering
of city lights
sits below
darkened skies
that stretch and loom
behind faint reflections of a room;
a table lamp, a candle light
some figures sit and dance inside
this movie

this movie that i see
this movie that surrounds indwells excites repels and blesses me

it shames photographic quality
with colors rich, intense, and live

devastating and delicate,
the sound system would make Dolby cry

it's also tactile and olfactory
a complete chemical laboratory
an interactive 3-D party
a real-time, sensuous love story.

but -
most incredibly -
almost unbelievably included with this movie
is an omnipresent
and incessant,
inexhaustible
and constant,
condescending
and contrary,
running line of commentary
