The Movies And Us Poem by RIC BASTASA

The Movies And Us



back to the thrill
in the movies
we are caught in
the web of its
transparent truths
we stop for a while
like posts
when electric lights
begin to
blink, when we
finally see ourselves
in the characters
when we wake up
and find that we too
fall short
of the measure
for goodness
