“Don’t Forget Your Dreams”

From Boston to Normandy
From Clocks to Mountains
From Family to Strangers
The Storyteller left
His mark on them all

Wounded at birth without parents,
He trudged on.
Luck guided him to Mount Rushmore
Yet he seeked more.

Fought in battle at Omaha beach
He would not give up, when wounded.

Home became the Black Hills,
The center of the World.
Theirs and now his.

Through winters cold
Or broken bones
Or heart attacks
He pressed on.

With rewarding work
Came joyce happiness
A wife and ten children
Joined his life.

Blast and Blast and Blast again.
Time rolled on,
Like an hour glass in slow motion
Until fatal hour.

Sadly claimed
By deaths cold embrace
His entombment
Beneath his last great monument
There forever “Left Unknown”

But even still his dream lives on

Rubrics by Kubrick

In such a wicked world where we live

We close our eyes so as not to give,

Where there is so much violence, insanity and disease

My brother, My brother, please

So hiding these truths in books is something we all can agree

Never wanting them to reach the Hollywood lights shining on the bright marquee,

But at last there is a man named Stanley who corrects these things

His truths rising like water from the springs

His screenplay and direction in A Clockwork Orange revealed our true selves as we are today

While his 2001: A Spaceship Odyssey spoke of computers named Hal who fail to obey,

Although his works are considered science fiction

I’m left wondering if they’re not a true prediction

For aren’t all visionaries suppose to foresee what’s ahead

And speak those words better left unsaid,

Because our tomorrows are like looking onto the open sea

We need a captain to keep our ship clear and free

Stanley Kubrick takes us to that place

Which is normally so difficult to embrace,

But eventually our eyes open and we try to see

All those things that Stanley has brought for you and me

The Road

1. What is the fire represent?
2. what reason did the mother committed suicide?
The American Dream

1. How did the failures of Martin Luther King Jr. continue to drive the Civil Rights Movement?
2. How did the Hamiltonian society shape our current communites and cities?

John Ford

“I make westerns”

I was one of the first
Nobody did it better than me
Visions in my head
Spinning like Ferris wheel

There were a lot
Of Uzis in
My western movies

I even fought
For my country
Saw bodies fly like birds

I loved directing movies,
Even though some flopped
Most of them were great
Like heaven on earth

But sometimes
I went crazy
Like the man who shot liberty

I won many awards
I was the best director ever
My movies will live on forever.

DIANE ARBUS

Diane Arbus

A tragic figure,

Always seeing the obscure

Taking portraits of empathy

Unable to escape the images in her mind

A tortured restless soul

Giving compassion to others, showing their beauty

Unable to see her own

The ups and downs

Black and white

Her parents encouraged her

Stieglitz influenced her

Showing her Brady and O'Sullivan

With her husband she did advertising

Restless and blue, taking after her mother

Popular with magazines

She didn't know she was like a modern Van Gogh

Stephen Hawking

Mind in a Chair

A regular black hole in science,
The center of it all
Challenging the standings,
But unable to walk.

Cambridge Math Professor
More genius than the rest.
He's lives in his chair
69 with ALS

A computer does his talking
But none could compare
His dream for solving
The theory of everything

Unable to speak for many years
Still teaching every day
He lives for the questions
Still yearns for the answers
