my women of the silver screen
don't know what it is, but
i love them so
i really do
not just the stars, but
the extras and walk ons
the incidentals
they drive me nuts
they really do
i try to figure them out
what brought them to that particular point
you know - their story
story within a story within a story
i try to catch them in revealing moments
when they break the illusion
when they're out of character
it happens you know
it really does
if you look hard enough
you can see through anything
and time loses itself within the focus
and they could be sitting right next to you
for all that it would matter
no difference, same deal
for all i know they may be looking at me
