Best In Camera Poems

Cinnamon and apple fill the air 

Scent of Gram's famous pie

Warm fire roaring in the hall

Music turned up for all to hear

"Vivo per lei da quando sai
 La prima volta l’ho incontrata,
 Non mi ricordo come ma
 Mi è entrata dentro e c’è restata.
 Vivo...

Oil train sits in Lac Megantic 
Town folk sleep not so frantic 
Patrons socialize while they slept 
Unannounced the train it crept 

No such thing a train in idle 
This one proved homicidal 
Train engine fire silent alarm 
Town unaware no fear of harm

Saudi Arabia & Michelle’s Look

“No women are left behind with justice!”
-H. Smirch


Her scorching look,
A mouth-shut grin, with defensively flowery dress,
Michelle’s falsetto indignation
Makes all of us feeling so damned good;
There was no fume,
Not a growled kiss, just that road of a free WOMAN
Into this spitefully state...

True earth 
crowded with the familiar facial form:
chalked on concrete
crayoned by children, 
squirted on birthday cakes, 
in camera with teeth all whitened, 
portraited, imitated, formulated. 

We don't wake up 
until we see it. 
We plaster it on 
birds or cats or pigs. 
We laugh and...

The robber breaks in
 unseen eyes scan, blink and flash
Nabbed in camera....

Fat balls
white stitches curve a fast sun
      SLAM      arcs to anxious
brown leather skins.

When I was new in photography,
I was hoping an adventure;
But by the end of the day
Just a lecture.

Then they picked up camera,
Aimed at a deer.
It captured even food stuck in its teeth.
They smiled and said,
“What slowed down the dear,
Is shutter speed.”

At home, In front of...

Debt,born to the debtor and the creditor,
It's a test of intelligence-
Bridges the banks of income and outgoing,
The debts happen in air,
But the theft in camera,
Disowning the owning happens in air and camera,
Debts,debts and debts! in this planet of chocolates!
To deal in debt,networks work in uniforms,
Theft...

Single eyed the cameras,
Talk on click,
Smile on flash,
Save in memory like people,
Speak the truth,
Trusted witnesses,
In camera like their names!...

Let’s climb the mountain top,
count stars with the passing night,
chat until our throat hurts,
laying down all fear,
with naked soul.
Gaze into my eyes
show me your thoughts.
Take me to sunrise
and  l'll brew coffee,
capture our togetherness in camera to visit time after time
Make art from mere words.
Lets...

This photograph of me and you
gauze red shirt and winter sunned
on our way to New York City
to traipse the town and eat Chinese
is still on my refrigerator door.
Twelve years passed, maybe more.
Somehow our smiles with open mouths
to catch the air of frozen thoughts
in camera eyes...

through the lens darkly piercing the vail starkly 
past the thin veneer of the world into the next, past 

the bones of this incarnation and gravitations greed
through the lens of the past, reflexing into the future 

of a world never known or understood, a thin...
