Anthem of the Pretentious

I am a God

I am a Sage

I am the void

I am space

I am the need

I am the pain

I am the greed

I am insane

I am the con

I am the law

I am perfection

I am the flaw

I see the winds

I hear the light

I speak in colors

I taste the sight

I am beginning

I am the end

I am them all

Or so I pretend

Celestial Vessel

She slips inside in sleepless nights

Smiles on me her celestial lights

The blaze of sun and the glaze of moon

She shows them all and leaves just as soon

.

She moves amidst those dancing shadows

As if she owns me, around she wallows

Whispering thoughts that’s just my kind

I wonder ofttimes if she reads my mind

.

Now the dawn hits, she’s no more there

Conjured of thoughts, she’s not so real

A spirit, a musing, a fantasy, if you will

Only her touch left behind for me to feel

.

That’s when I pen down

All her whisperings

Those genuine words!

Those genius thoughts!

I bleed them all out

For the world to see

And to think I’m a genius!

What can be a greater sin?

.

I am but a vessel

A simple messenger

Hers

For it is I

who can see her, hear her, feel her

So it is I

who must show her beauty to all

Her beauty

Her words

Her thoughts

It’s not me

Oh, not me!

I am but a messenger

I am but a vessel.

So here they are, in alphabetical order: my personal favorites that always inspire me to pick up the pen (the laptop) and get cracking again. It’s a subjective list, yes, so don’t be shy. Add your own picks to the comments, or just throw in your two cents on why this list is so complete and awesome. I tried to include videos of my favorite scenes from these films as opposed to just embedding the trailers, but often I was thwarted in this effort by the seemingly thousands of fan tributes made to certain films that almost always have scenes from the movies edited with overlapping songs by the likes of Nickelback and Lifehouse (I’m looking at you, Shakespeare In Love). Don’t be alarmed, I spared you that aggression, so don’t be afraid to watch the vids.

Adaptation

This film is, for me, a perfect representation of how difficult it is…
