I made a movie about the end of the world
|
it was 12 seconds long and it didn't have a plot
|
it just happens
|
and that's why it's in black and white
|
the characters don't talk or move around
|
they just stare up at the sky, frozen
|
and the light, the light is numb, the light is off
|
the light is just a thumb nail sketch of god
|
god...
|
somewhere, someone is crying
|
the camera sweeps over a desolate street
|
holding a mother and her child
|
the kid is calm and she is shaking
|
the camera passes into the sun
|
come at last to be undone
|
panicking, she tries to run
|
the kid is calm
|
and then the credits roll
|
and every name is my name
|
