Off in the night while you live it up I’m off to sleep
Waging wars to shake the poet and the beat
I hope it’s gonna make you notice
I hope it’s gonna make you notice

“I’ll never forget the day Marilyn and I were walking around New York City, just having a stroll on a nice day. She loved New York because no one bothered her there like they did in Hollywood, she could put on her plain-jane clothes and no one would notice her. She loved that. So as we we’re walking down Broadway, she turns to me and says ‘Do you want to see me become her?’ I didn’t know what she meant but I just said ‘Yes’- and then I saw it. I don’t know how to explain what she did because it was so very subtle, but she turned something on within herself that was almost like magic. And suddenly cars were slowing and people were turning their heads and stopping to stare. They were recognizing that this was Marilyn Monroe as if she pulled off a mask or something, even though a second ago nobody noticed her. I had never seen anything like it before.” - Amy Greene, wife of Marilyn’s personal photographer Milton Greene

We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
I love this movie so much..

This series, entitled Imaginary Towns, features a single, lonely person set next to dimly lit streets and flat, cardboard buildings. Francesco Romoli’s various city streets are collages of his own photographs, blended into incredibly inventive locations with distinct lighting and dramatic shadows. His subjects seem to be lost in sadness, wandering alone and in search of something. But, viewers only see a small glimpse into the story, left lingering with the mystery of what brought each person to such despair, and left to fill in the pieces of the puzzle as to how the story might end.
