81,and you have already made HEREAFTER
You make new films with no rehearsal now
Each moment stolen from inevitable silences
You screen your dreams and visions loud
Widescreen ,with film heroes,and a plot,low budget
like a Woody Allen for the serious set
You ennoble Hollywood storytelling
by your example on each set
INVICTUS a theme you return to
like all those movies made when you were young
Outlaw,with humanity-lawman with a heavy gun.
Now whether they will make your films again
you know they are not making any more
of stories with a script and plot and characters
not just cartoon special effects,all digital
Every film you make -you make as if it were your first
For time and life and death are critics
You wonder which raven will bite worst
Pecking at your entrails,all the Gods are watching
Your life unfold as in a docudrama
Who will play YOU in your next life?
Do they have standins or rehearsals in the HEREAFTER?
