Ben Nardolilli

Action Packed

The first movie was awesome,
though I’m not feeling it right now, and to hell
with your double vote of confidence

What is the sequel about? It seems to be
nothing but backseat living,
right in the middle of a road, or taking the tunnel

Is he (the main character) a prisoner somewhere?
Is he getting sucked into the middle
of a vortex doing a little bit of technicolor?

Because I like what’s going on in the middle,
it makes you think about
what it means, flying into the sun
