films with subtleties

I'm sick of metatextual implications 
you can't tease out without violence.
Just by application of human reason
and common sense, I am not dense 

but things ought to come plain and 
explain themselves if you look at them 
the intense way I can, and I do, and 

they don't. I'm 

sick of it. My brother once said 
"I can't stand films with subtleties." 

Turns out you meant subtitles, bro 
but you know? I have over the years 
in my wisdom's growth (I think it's 
my wisdom - no biopsy, though) 
become less and less so inclined 
to disagree.
