The Zapruder Film Poem by Ima Ryma

The Zapruder Film



A movie camera he took
On the plaza downtown outside,
In order for better lens look
At the very publicized ride.
Into view the motorcade came.
The scene was set for highest crime,
The shocking killing, frame by frame,
Only taking seconds in time.
The film was a one of a kind.
He chose not to exploit it for
A money making machine find.
He did no filming anymore.

Abe Zapruder did shoot that day
The whole shooting of J.F.K.
