Got to get out of the city,
if you want to see the galaxy.
(Be sure to grab your camera on your way out the door,
cause there’s no turning back).

Must escape man’s brilliance,
man’s electric-mind;
street lamps with flesh-light, blue-light, and corpse-light, 
lights that hum, 
lights...

Brianna Shutter - *****
Dark is black and black is dark; this is the day we did depart. No more saying it’s ok, no more hugs to take the pain away. You left me as if in rain and gave me unrelenting pain. You’re a wretched whore with no...

A image whispers through my contemplations
I feel like I’ve awakened in a dream of the past
Emotions surround me, gracing me with prayers
Bidding me wisdom from this reflection elapsed

A representation of what once gave me joy
Selections of melodies gone now, but recalled
With this tender rendition of...

Shutter
I woke up and you had gone 
After the shock 
That struck
When you said,

“Take it off “

When you opened up;
And I finally felt your eyes.

I am tired and I need you in my life.
She said, 
“Dear god, 
Please stay the night.”

I wore your clothes home,
When...

Sadly, Shutter Speed
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...

  some faithful happy side.

  and it settles in still time on

Shutter
Your like a device in a camera
that open and closes my heart.
At times your turned off so long
Then it opens creating art. 

There is no reason 
was this peace should arise
For there was never a time
that we created solid ties. 

The side effects of you
have...

Shutter Mind
Tripped down in a shutter when i met you, now stuck in a mindgame/, in a psychopath's hold i try to remain sane/

Your words cleaves me/, your hands strokes me/, things i once fell for now decieves me/ and chokes me/

You terrorizing me/, investigating me/,...

Which Caused Me To Shutter
The rabbits laughed at the chickens when the farmer spoke of coq au vin. The mocked the hens and teased the roosters. The chef came in with his cookbook: and one of the rabbits began reading it. "Ah Hell: this one is about us this...

Shutter Speed
As I travel at warp speed
Through time, it seemed
Motionless and surreal
As my molecules
Tries to catch-up
With my body
Giving away my
Sense of smell
Touch and sight
Until I explode...

Wide Open Shutter
A fiery red dress infused in yellow sunflowers
green meadows vibrant in a rainbow glamour
smiling eyes shine a lattice of unseen colors
in thousand snapshots of paparazzi clamour 

enraptured in your spotlight of  radiant flame
zooming in and out  my eyes close and blink 
in your...

Poor Putter Who Would Stutter So Did Shutter
went on rampage
they never would act their age
creating much rage

what we always did dread
had nightmares sleeping in bed
more people were dead

when willow did weep
we would count the wooly sheep
soon were sound asleep

behind was facade
our minds they would seem to prod
God will love and laud 

in...

Shutter of Time
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
So they say from years and I'd wonder
If life should be spent, together souls as one
Moon rise as one, we'd be as the falling sun

The sunrise tale of of life as we know it
Is full of hate, greed, lies, lust,...

Spotted black, crouching low,
Approaching silent,very slow,
Large big eyes,spot him quick,
Race for life! Eyes click click!

Soaring high, measured round,
focussed search on the ground,
Talons poised for a sharp pick,
bunny dodges! Eyes Click, click!

Hooded hiss a deadly charmer,
Forked tongue, venom streamer,
Smooth, soft, and shining slick,
A Flying lizard! Eyes...
