Learning Cinema Curves

She went looking for a scare But what was she gonna wear A pink tank top From the discount shop Was she going to be coming from class? Frustrated since grades may not pass Maybe it was the need to be a beauty From the lone photographer doing their duty There could be the character worried about the musical score Forgetting to lock the front door It says she has too much smarts in the head This Achilles’ heal could render her dead All this knowledge Came from studying books in college Making her out of touch During the academic learning watch Message or mayhem A question from the one working the pen A debate that matters Understood when climbing the model movie making ladder Playing God or Devil After being promoted to the next level Having added responsibilities Being paid off with more visibility Lines to recite Performing choreographed moves during the climatic fight Is it really the better deal? To be the shark’s meal Or the evil’s revenge Holding the deadly syringe These are decisions When contemplating a b role position Do you want it all up front? Being the prey in the hunt Doing what they want Including risky stunts Physical attraction Opening scenes luring attraction Important factors For the female working actors Destined a place on the streaming shelf A bragging credible image defined as good health Just important as the big budgeted wealth When it is written in the script Her characters basically ends up headed to the crypt
