Delmore Schwartz - Metro-GoldwyDelmore Schwartz - Metro-Goldwy
Work rating: Low


I looked toward the movie, the common dream, The he and she in close-ups, nearer than life, And I accepted such things as they seem, The easy poise, the absence of the knife, The near summer happily ever after, The understood question, the immediate strife, Not dangerous, nor mortal, but the fadeout Enormously kissing amid warm laughter, As if such things were not always played out By an ignorant arm, which crosses the dark And lights up a thin sheet with a shadow`s mark.
