Best Camera Poems

Identify an elephant
And I will shout, “Hooray!”
For you’re so smart you could be
Leader of the U.S.A.

Another test to prove your worth?
Repeat this after me – 
Five words: they’re “Person, Woman, Man”
Then “Camera” and “T.V.”

It’s comforting to know we’re led
By one with an I.Q.
That helps him...

Fat Santa sneaked out of the shop
With bags full of sweets and a cake
The salesgirl screamed out: “Call a cop!
That man dressed as Claus is a fake!”

In God's image we were made, and to God all the Glory
Thus lucifer became dismayed in not liking this story
Of the angels he took a third coming down to the Earth
And because all of this occurred we have Jesus's Birth

Just one of many worlds that...

Sweat drips backstage, mouth parched, heart beating at a sprinter's pace.
All eyes on me, as lights dim with spotlight honing on mic and lips.
Words flow to a standing ovation - I soak it all in.


One of the highlights for me in 2023 was performing spoken...

Through the camera lens, why do you seek me out?
Trough the camera lens,  For I wish to escape your sight,
Through the camera lens,  I wish to run away, choose someone else,
I dont want to be seen as I am, for I am really...

Characteristically speaking,
I am in awe of you,
Make believing, while convincing us all that you are true.
Art imitating life,
Life from the depth of imagination,
profoundly saying,
I am here, SURPRISE!!!!
I have arrived!!!!!
Shakespere himself would roll over with envy,
and T.S. Elliot would smile with what you bring.
Keep doing the...

sunshine
bright lights
they all look the same
spotlight
stage
my home away from home
a song in my throat
sorrow surrounding my heart
the mic 
is my only comfort
when i open my mouth
and sing those familiar melodies
all fears leave
spotlight on me
like Tupac
all eyes on me
not a rapper 
but my rhymes 
and lyrics...

A Camera to clear writer’s block is not wise
The flash tends to hurt my eyes
Cause when it’s pointing at me
The picture I cannot see
But the funny faces I pull I’ve won first prize...

Through the camera lens
She appears to me
But in negative
She looks so differently

Enhanced is her shape
Delicious in curve
Negative shadows
Hugging clothes serve

Pout and pert
Elegance
Posture of shape
My eyes in trance

Shadows of black
Stand out eyes
Piercing me
Leaves me in sigh

Through the camera lens
She appears to be
The negative
Of what I normally...

What is it about this figure that stands between us?
Do we allow it to stand there Forever?
I want to be there with you.

In 5 months what will we know?
Will we know more or less?
It matters.

I see us spread out on paper, 
Like ink blotches, forming,and...

A moth to the heart of the light, flamed
A memory semi-precious, almost alive
A random arced flight of a bullet not aimed
A gymnastic crimson misted dusty dive.

An event striking elsewhere, a country un-named
His memories stop, awards to come; cease,
Mass shock, horror, and politics blamed
Kind words at...

Stupid Things People Say.
.
Stupid things people say
I hear them every day
.
Is it the weather or me?
How do you want your tea
In or out
Well it make more sense to have it in a cup 
To me
.
Is that a guitar on your shoulder?
No it’s an ironing board
And...
