Photoplay Sometimes, in the darkened theater behind my closed eyes, I don’t know whether to laugh or to cry at the madness playing across the screen again and again. One becomes accustomed to almost anything I guess. The unfulfilled need, increasing in intensity, finally becoming a craving for something unattainable. One priceless moment. No... The word echoes. (Push) Just lie back and watch the movie as ice forms inside the room quenching the fires within. The cold lulls me to sleep. I’ve never seen the entire movie. I wonder how it ends? 7/21/00 "Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night." -Edgar Allen Poe |
