​What's On At The Movies?


They can lock you in a dank cell and turn off the light
But they can't stop your imagination's fanciful flight
You alone have the power to pick out a reel
And it's your choice which affects exactly how you feel

Some continue choosing the same worn out celluloid
Not realising that it is the one they should avoid
Oblivious that there is an unlimited selection
All eagerly waiting to be given an inspection

I can see one with scenes of a yellow feathered bird
Chirping cheerily away, its joy clearly to be heard
Because it's chosen footage of fresh air, sunlight and seeds
Which just about cover all of its needs

What you do in reality will invariably be affected
By which of the films that you have selected 
But if you pick a dud, no need to mope
Lots more to choose from, which inspire and give hope
