You’ve hurt me Do you know that? Did you even notice While you tore me to shreds Then wiped your feet on the pieces Did it occur to you That what you were doing Ripped me apart? You never saw me, never knew Did you? Well here we are Tables turned I am you…
Review “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes”
I started this expecting a mindless action flick. I was pleasantly surprised. This is a sequel, and at the time of writing this review I have not seen the first movie. It stands alone comfortably – at no time did I find myself wondering what was happening. The preliminary rundown of the events leading up…
Repetitive History
Self-defeating Self-repeating Endless loop of error Pointing, blaming Soul defaming Living life in terror Misconstruing Always doing Everything all wrong Isolating Sneering, hating Why can’t I belong?
Review “The curse of Sleeping Beauty”
I have a soft spot for fractured fairy tales. This film on the face of it really fits that bill. While much of this film was very enjoyable, ultimately I think it fell short. A modern day protagonist is troubled by dreams of a sleeping princess, weird-looking creatures and a sinister building. He is surprised…
Two faced
One may smile, and smile, and be a villain Shakespeare knew, he understood That pleasant words and mild manner May hide a ruthless streak You’ll throw anyone under a bus To advance your own star One face to show in sunshine The other comes out in the shade While you chirp and chuckle along your…
Review “A Wrinkle in time” by Madeleine L’Engle
The release of the movie made me want to revisit this book which I have not read since I was a child. This trip down memory lane was fun, though with the eyes of an adult I can see flaws I would not have seen as a child. The main theme is the tried and…
I hear you
I hear you I hear your pain, your despair I hear your fear I hear you You fight for what is right You fight for survival You fight for the poor and the sick You stand up for truth You make a noise And I hear you Pleading for mercy Crying for healing…
Thank God He doesn’t always say yes to prayer.
Can you imagine what it would be like if all your prayers were answered? For those who don’t pray, how about if all your wishes came true? Sounds good, doesn’t it? however, if you stop and really think about everything you’ve ever wished for, yearned for, prayed for, would that really be a good thing?…
Hindsight
Hindsight sees so well Backwards looking crystal clear High definition decisions show full colour mistakes errors reverberate in surround sound loud and deafening hello, look here, look at what you did you should have seen that coming future is murky lights going out connection is oh so slow what to do, how to proceed decisions,…
Review “Jurassic World”
By the time I had finished wading through this mess, ‘dear god what did I just watch’ was my conclusion. Fans of the original “Jurassic Park” will be forgiven for a feeling of déjà vu when watching this, and I don’t mean this in a good way. The plot is virtually identical to the original,…
