independent pitch

You should be
the star of a foreign movie
about your domestic life, the little
observations and crises that stubbornly
fail to unfold, without many a push
and a wrenching shove, and a bitterly,
wickedly well-turned joke

at the joke's own expense, which
not enough people were there
to hear.

Someone should inhabit your house
like a shadow, taking down video notes,
drawing narrative throughlines, connecting it
all in a nontraditional mode

for development into a film, and I

volunteer
