January 5th, 2024 — The Last Picture Show

The last movie we saw together
Was The Last Picture Show

January 5th, 2024

She didn’t get it.
It’s an end of everything movie
That we watched together
At the end of everything
And she didn’t get it

It had all been a futile effort
But one I had to make
I had to give it everything in my body mind and soul
Give all of myself to the futile failure of my soul’s deepest love

I’m glad I did
But still
I wish to God
That the show would go on
