Little monkeys
Did you know that film sets are infested
with little monkeys, actual ones
with long tails and sometime in strange hats,
with nothing to do all day but hide?
They fill in all the gaps you don't see
on the big screen as you eat your butter
on popcorn, letting two dimensions take
on the semblance of a real world.
The monkeys aren't evil, they just
like to play hide-and-seek
like in the days when you used to imagine you were
like the characters in big thick books.
The little monkeys laugh more each day.
