Harlem 'Round Midnight || Short Film

Описание: One can only dream of day.
A poem following the life of a father and a stepfather.
(As seen at Rise Screening Event)

Before the bright and early,
the darkest dreams more punctual.
The early bird catches the worm but
not if devoured in the owl's hour.

Round Midnight's Rennaisance:
beat fathers carry bags on their eyes
and veins in their hands blink
to flush the heat of day.

Suitcase soldiers off the crosstown convoy
C.O.'s pass and CO gas hisses
in the face of homeless veterans
as the convo leaves.

A loud stench and a sour sight
kushion the jagged coasts of K2 Island
While half-conscious coastguards
taste cracked cement.

Pocket full of dreams;
wallet full of nightmares.
Healthy Eyes
tantalized by...

Harmonies of 8 bars,
measures by the kilo
symphonies of car horns
at clicking heels.

Chorus of left-panned orgasms
under the bridge of pay-for-play.
Right ear deafened by the
call of wives and abandoned children.

Sons leave while the
sun grieves another work day
to rise...once again
above the leaves

... of fathers--
beat dead by day--
alive by
night.

Some dreams never end.
The night sweats faces--
sodden
in evaporated moonlight.
