The Odd Fossils of Movieland
Celluloid fossils
Move on brightness
Captured in life
Inhabiting a world
Where colors have evaporated
Leaving only light and shadow
And they were beautiful animals
Trapped on these shiny strips
Perfectly groomed
With their plumage
Of satin, sequins, and feathers
They sang instead of speaking
Danced in lieu of walking
For nothing was ordinary there
