Woody Allen Poem by Gayathri Seetharam

Woody Allen
-Gayathri B. Seetharam
Woody Allen is an American comedian, filmmaker and writer
Who directed and starred in two of his most famous films, 'Annie Hall' and 'Manhattan Murder Mystery'
His humour is unconventional and bordering on the zany
And wacky and he is this guy with unthreatening looks who has
Taken the world by storm;

I am making a meaningful collage out of his selected works and another poem:
Sean O'Shawn, the great Irish poet, is considered by many to be
The most incomprehensible and hence the finest poet of his time,
Gather round, ye Greeks, and heed the story of Phidipides-one so
Wise, so passionate, so steeped in the glories of Greece,
Who needs a wooden horse…
Mark my words, Cratinus-as a Greek statesman, I would
Never trust the Trojans
You notice they never take a day off?
Civilization is shaped like a circle
And repeats itself, while
O'Leary's head is shaped like
A trapezoid
Rejoice, Rejoice! And call your mother once in a while
Decisions are arduous
Love can be like trigonometry,
All straight lines can be expressed as y=mx+b,
But we are not formulaic, you see,
If impressionists had been dentists
Then art is the mirror of life.
