Two young women in a cemetery at night ask a wizard using a gravestone as a Pythagorean veil to recite his latest poem.

The persistent interruption of a film production clapperboard in the foreground reveals the reading to be an ongoing attempt to transform the literary material into the visual medium of film.

The presence of the clapperboard suggests his amateurish performance and missed cues may in time be corrected through subsequent takes.

The angle of the large gravestone however is also counterpoised to fall, crushing anything that happens to be standing behind it into permanent invisibility.
