The White Room by Charles Simic

Poet: | Nationality: | Filmmaker:

An exceptionally interesting videopoem: “1 min photocopimation based on a poem by Charles Simic called The White Room. By Noush Anand, 2007,” says the note at YouTube. This is Anand’s only upload to YouTube. It’s been viewed all of 63 times — a travesty.

The video animates just the first two stanzas of Simic’s ten-stanza poem; read it in full at Poets.org.
