| in a silent way |
her father was a boxer. now he's a fisherman without a vessel. his love makes him absent. he speaks in subtitles, the words yellow and small at the bottom of the screen, and he smiles through his sadness. first she won't speak to him. then he won't speak to her. he wears a shark mask, offers a gift, walks down concrete steps while she shouts hard abuse after him. she eases into the shoes of a tragic child actress. and she sings to the small ones who don't understand: "all other things are other things. everything is something else." |
