Why I don’t like Movies
There is a good reason
Why I don’t like movies
They tend to be so mainstream
Nothing but return on investment
Take this Brazilian movie for instance
Why in God’s name was the princess allowed
By her poor black lover, to leave the favela
All alone by herself, never to arrive safely
Into her rich daddy’s guarded apartment
On the other side of the Copacabana?
Somebody is messing shamefully
With my emotional intelligence
Trying to sell me nonsense
