A Rebuff From The Film Gods

As I ascended
the escalators
at the Landmark
Century
Cathedral
I was confronted
with an uncommon feature-
A line!
My assumption-
(which proved unsound)
Star Wars was the culprit
But no!
The group of twelve
burly bearded gay men
(Bears)
in front of me
bought the last tickets
for my intended screening
(Carol)
my only unseen alternative
was Eddie Redmayne's
breathy mincing
(The Danish Girl)
which seemed
unappealing unto
blaspheme.
So.
I made my long
winding way
down the circuitous
low grade ramps
onto the indifferent streets.
Devoid of celluloid to worship.
