Get Back
If you have movies taken back
When you were just a child,
You’ll know that seeing everyone
So young is really wild.
The clothes, the styles, the mannerisms
Take you to that time
When some on screen most likely had
Been living in their prime.
“Get Back” by Peter Jackson
Gives us all a chance to see
The Beatles at their finest
And most viewers would agree
That it captures, like in amber,
Glimpses perfectly preserved
Of four artists hard at work,
A process very few observed.
For the fans, it’s like rare treasure
We’ve been told that we can share,
When we didn’t even realize
All the riches waiting there.
As I watch, I’m not a nana
Or a teacher or a wife
But a teenaged girl just starting
On the path that’s been my life.
