Writers have quills And so do porcupines Woe those who dare To invoke all those tines

Oh fantasy is not for bridesmaid's font To represent; it's not all platitudes To put on vinyl stickers -- but that sells. I might write that, but lack the attitudes!

Ah, stenciled edges! Lovely things you are Your curlicues are best but flowers, stars I swoon for too. But I cannot buy The books you trim -- they're not for me -- I cry!

Cardboard cover, plastic spine, Notes and doodles, line by line -- Or not, one skipped, maybe two. Destiny it almost knew Of great novel in first draft, But fate changed from fore to aft. 'Twas dismantled page by page To recycle, disengage. One could say it was abused, But 'twas object, merely used.

My minor moments equal inspiration But only for two lines - such aggravation!

Jim Carrey Is sometimes scary. It complicates the play; Kids like him anyway.

"Movies 2024" (A pastiche of the song "Human Touch", written and performed by Rick Springfield) I know that movies need computers To perfect what's on the silver screen I know I'm too nostalgic, gosh knows I'm sorry, Eighties were my scene Cape flicks are blandly formulated And I want out of Disney World, uh-huh But Chalamet's got two hits (back to back) That Barbie movie's fun and it made a stack Oh IP grabs are cool when the work's not hack Look out there and find it! Chorus: Movies need a human touch They still need a human touch They can find it, a human touch We still want it, a human touch I need it so!
Some said that "Oppenheimer's chancy, Nolan can't do it black-and-white"; Who thought a Bob Marley biopic Would best Madame Web in a fight?
No one knows anything, Bill Goldman said (Indulge as I paraphrase, uh-huh) I know there's still more sequels up ahead And Zaslav's writing off all those films for dead Don't give up on the flicks, cuz I won't; instead I'll believe (Repeat chorus)
I'm so scared of constant mergers and lost catalogs Movies need... Movies need...
(Repeat chorus)

The dateline: Glasgow 2024 I can believe the stories floating round That something Wonka-based could be more poor Than that Tom & Jerry movie run aground
