Film Poems
On Trains - edit
by Scott Sowerby
The lights from the station platform
Flicker on the floor of the carriage
As the train pulls away into the dark
My fingers and toes counteract
The toing - froing, pushing
Hard into the floor and handrail
Under the my fingers white
Knuckled stoney eyed. I stare

Shane (A Childhood Memory)
by Baramundi Roy
Rooted in the ground defiant it stood
stronger than steel though it was made of wood.
It was stubborn and determined to stay
but it had to go for it was in the way.
Each night they would attack it together
with an axe and spade, with horse and tether.
A stranger alliance could ne'er be found
trying to remove this stump from the ground.

An Ode to James Bond
by Baramundi Roy
It all began with a car chase
zooming around all over the place.
Then with the girl jumped into the boat
all others sank but they kept afloat.
Into the plane they both then went,
got shot down but survived the descent.
Lots of fights and so action packed
much more of fiction than of fact.

Silver Screen..
by Raina Hutchins
The girl said on the silver screen
A tear in each blue
Please don’t ever leave my love
For if you did, I’d die
I yawned and switched the TV off
I’d seen that film before
And in the end it all came right
Just like a million more
