Movie Poems

Explaining this collection has been a more difficult task than envisioned. In a sense, the title, as barren as it is broad, really says it all. It is the experience of a movie distilled into a poem. Some are disguised as reviews; some go in more interesting directions. I imposed no guidelines except brevity. And I suppose, in this concision, the craft (Id never call it artistry) finds its canvas. Also, as most were penned in the 2014-to-2016 period, movies from those years feature prominently here alongside fondly remembered classics from past decades.
