a poem called auto wreck shows how poetry can help us share our personal and inner views- and also that poetry is not all about flowers and sunsets all the time- but you knew that. we're all rubberneckers, but the folks in this film really soak it up- you want to say, "get a life!" orm "show's over, folks, go home"... but we are still standing there too-

  • @comeacross9 Excellent comment ! I wish I were more turned on to poetry in my high schools days- long ago. I am just discovering the poetry of James Joyce and Emily Bronte- a beautiful melancholy there. " Cancels my physics " too. I highly commend this old film.

  • One of my favorite poems by the brilliant but under appreciated Karl Shapiro. " cancels our physics with a sneer...."

    Thank you for posting this.

  • what did he say?

  • I fell asleep.
