Close Up Lens
Photographs are memories of life developed in dark rooms of reflection
Exposure and fixation for a moment and beyond
A couple holding firm their togetherness covered in aquamarine hues
Blue focus a moon the earth horizon and foothold
Some of them require no more than an aperture and infinite moment
Whichever way you turn them they shed intricate light
The centre remains where all angles meet regardless of perspective
Like a Rorschach Test with one half missing
Azure Cyan and Sapphire shades condensed on a palette in motion
A kiss and embrace hanging from film clips waiting to dry
Stop bath fixer and final rinse then reality immortalizes another illusion
Cerulean dreams held by intimate clouds and lips intertwined
A picture in which artist and models change positions and convergence
Glimpse of concern and subtle impermanence
Turquoise surrender and teal skies as comets lie in passionate waiting
Spectre and shadows solemnly overcast and yet translucent
Captured on chromogenic paper and free as the stars nevertheless
A picture holds pure truth while the Universe shifts
