CEE

We tried a Mystery Science Theater 3000-thing
Watched movies with my
Primitive sound equipment placed about the room
So to hear us being pithy
I was worried the chosen movie’s audio would distract us into
Actually watching it instead of
Thinking we were all Bill Hicks,
So selected Leni Riefenstahl’s Triumph of the Will
We had a day which ended sick from laughter
As funny as the professionals we’d just not
Been given the chance to become,
But
I kinda goofed, at one point, ‘cause
Every time Riefenstahl would cut to buildings or a statue or a
Manmade horizon of any sort,
I’d intone,
“Bombed, May, 1942”
“Bombed, August, 1941”
“Bombed, January, 1944”
And so on
Until one friend said,
“That wasn’t that funny to begin with!”
And, it kinda killed my mood
So, fine, Rex Reed, excuse me, scorched earth isn’t funny
I thought it was funny
