a long stroll to the movies

tattoo-worthy

films failed to induce change

nothing significant rearranged

broken paths

flickering in the cold

a single warm word

could have changed it all

past collaborations locked away

in a frame

of cinemascope

mellow and gold

horizon shining with silver tears

two paths twisted together

wise background work was underway

there was nowhere else to go
