Helena Bonham Carter, ‘This is just to say’.

Just thirty seconds long, see here what the brilliant Helena Bonham Carter does with that famous poem about plums.
Titled ‘This is just to say’, it’s by the American modernist poet, William Carlos Williams.
This, along with others that will be released soon, was directed by Paul Weiland during the lockdown summer of 2020, on location in Wiltshire, England for the film A Poem for Every Autumn Day that launched the anthology, A Poem for Every Autumn Day (published by Macmillan).
The poem features in Allie Esiri’s bestselling anthology, A Poem for Every Night of the Year, which won the IBW award in 2016.

‘This is just to say’
By William Carlos Williams
I have eaten
the plums
that were in the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold

Ah my love, but ave you tasted the ambrosial nuts of infinities graces, in a garden not sculpted by the consolation prize of an oppressive patriarchy but the living rainforest unmolested itself promising love poetry and sublime culture and wit and living plays with myriad sublime commentaries and communication and wisdom stories unique for each of it's millions of species in better than angelic chorus all around and better visual languages too than the best human art leading to better Definitions of Divinity than even the most holy problematic ones of we Monkeys made Human by male boastfulness if we could only be a little bit better and less oppressive with our Kingdoms and Money Systems and Overpopulating and Patriarchal Macho Fantasies all the time? No, well I'm not sure I ave either but it's worth a shot to try though is what I think.
