Cinematic Overture

CINEMATIC OVERTURE absentee teen had thrown money at mom, due, but all the same simply unyielding. a few days flew by, bird wings with no lullaby. a movie dirge of unquenchable thirst — replay of first few minutes, progress slow, the clock hands click and clatter, a matter of picking up the phone. a friend forfeits her loneliness to come with her to the cinema. she arrives ahead of schedule, but on time “Hey, what are you doing here?” rings in her ear. God pulls off such schemes for moms and teens. a white dove delivers a newborn tune. 4/5/2018
