Comment c'est (by Mitch Sisskind)

 

 

As feminine beauty such as that

Of Annabella Sciorra, for instance,

In the 1990s irrefutably testifies to

Celestial virtue, does contrarywise

Harvey Weinstein’s graying flesh

Express nature’s malevolent side,

So that Harvey abusively ejaculating

On Annabella’s leg allegorizes the

Paradoxical dualism of light and dark,

Love and hate, or for that matter

Life and death which, mysterious

As they are, seem to be how it is?

I haven’t the answer but I do suspect

His masturbation has some meaning..

Undoubtedly. Contrariwise!
I love "Comment c'est" a title, which is also a pun on "Commencer." -- DL
