Movie Palaces


Movie Palaces

By Lord R.e. Taylor

It was not that long ago
Saturdays were spent in a special place
Where cartoons, series, and previews showed
Two thousand seats waiting for you
It was always filled to overflowing
But your best friends always saved you a seat
Now, those theatres have died off
Replaced by boxes holding fifty movie fans
Or new movies coming straight into your home
Old movie palaces made a film an experience
Something everyone looked forward to
An experience lost to a distant past
