Requiem

For a Heavy Weight

By: - Jan 14, 2016

Revenant

No name man
Mr. just He
Brando
In Last Tango
Raped
Maria Schneider
Ms. She
Actually Paul
And Jeanne
Butt fucked her
With butter
That bare apartment
Surrogate
For everything
All love
Despair and hate
Both violated
By Bertolucci
They were never
The same
She vanished
The director
Ate Brando's
Heart and soul
Never given back
Life wasted
For a film
Sanity vanished
The Horror
All that was left
Like Leo
In Revenant
Slashed and mangled
Not just the
Ravaging bear
Protecting her cubs
Yet another
Pretty boy wop
Now a man
Dragged crawling
Through muck
And mud
Worked over
So brilliantly
By Iñárritu
Extracting
Performance
Of a lifetime
Ultimate sacrifice
That stunning land
Ah wilderness
From which
No traveler returns
Never-more sane
Krapp's Last Tape
Desperate survival
Naked in
Belly of the horse
Emerging barely
All bloodied
Another Epic
Truly Homeric
Astonishing score
Ryuichi Sakamoto
Pulsing through us
Joining the pantheon
Apocalypse Now
The Deer Hunter
What's left of
DiCaprio
Mauled and mangled
Stigmata
Now among
The immortals
Great art
For all time
Totally fucked
Whom the gods loved
Sanguine
Radiant youth
Now ravaged
With age
And wisdom
