New poem: "A Grotesque Parody"

 

A Grotesque Parody

 

The more I got into the movie

Don’t Look Up, the less real it seemed

to me, and soon it became a satire

of the human predicament; but the movie

went further, and it soon evolved

from a satire into parody, and I laughed

at the genius of the plotline. But the

parody grew so dark it became grotesque,

and I came away from that movie feeling

like I had been treated like a fool,

and out of five stars I gave it two, but

only for its star performers.
