Don't Turn The Projector Off! - Matthew LaFreniere

DON’T TURN THE PROJECTOR OFF! by Matthew LaFreniere is a poetry collection that touches on the innermost wonders of humanity. A combination of absurdity and endearment transform everyday images into works of art.

Matt sits in his basement and stares at his laptop. He thinks about movies. He thinks about poems. He thinks about anything but you, reader. Then he thinks about you, reader. He sits beneath a poster of the movie The Purple Rose of Cairo. He likes the movie fine, but not as much as the poster. The cat walks past. He hears his wife and kids shuffle above him. He stares at his laptop.
