Disorder in symmetry

Disorder in symmetry, crack in the line
Distorted perspective, cubistic design 
Sculptures in celluloid wrappings stand by   
Amorphous stains on your hands - wonder why ?
Clean them away with the acetone drips 
Mix a new color, paint some bright strips 
Autumnal wind blew those images down
He is the author, and I'm just a clown.

Celluloid Love

CELLULOID LOVE

They imagined they’d fallen in love in real life,
After playing together as man and wife.
Twenty-three weeks on a Hollywood set,
They knew it was just an illusion and yet ….
But nothing could come of the thing, of course,
He couldn’t afford yet another divorce.

Celluloid Cowboys

Old Cowboys, forts and shootouts
Black for bad and White for good
With a spinning canvas background
And cactus cutouts made of wood
The desert sits behind them
Fifty yards away at most
The heroes don't ride horses
They sip drinks and sit and boast
About their celluloid adventures
singing songs all dressed in white
While behind them in the background
The stunt men do it

Celluloid Daydream

For the past I pray in the tumorous night gone heavy and long,
Churning in the chirp of the tree frog’s soporific song.

The air thickens like cream churned thicker into butter,
Spinning in the muttered fumes of mind’s fogged clutter.

Coagulating light into an onyx-colored yet broken stone,
A celluloid flash of silver shines sight into solid bone.

Celluloid Intermezzo Indigo

“Celluloid Intermezzo Indigo”


"Black and White ain’t colour," he says
"Colour is very Black and White", she says 
"A person shows their true colours -
Black and White"

"Colour is very Black and White", she says

Celluloid is two dimensional

Dark and Light
Mirrors another dimension entirely…
Celluloid is two dimensional
What dimensions exist in the mind?

Mirrors another dimension entirely…

Celluloid Fright

"Help me," shrieked THE FLY with the human head
Eight-legged death was approaching
as he struggled, trapped in a spider web

There's horrors all round,
there's horrors everywhere
Close your eyes if you must,
if you do easily scare

No one can hear you scream in space as an ALIEN attack
A face-hugger with acid for blood
will cocoon you for a birthing snack

There's

Celluloid Dreams

Ubiquitous beauty - the ageless
Carnivorous fantasies
Devouring mortal man
Stealing his desires
Cruel impossible liar

Celluloid End

Lovers lips promise despair
The needle-
Full of poison,
Houses acid daydreams
Choices are made
This is a celluloid end.
