When You Leave, Don't Forget To Turn The Lights Off

When you leave, turn the lights off—
It matters not to me,
For I am the last subtraction
From the sum of humanity.

The stars have blinked their final light,
Planets turned to dust,
The galaxies collapsing inward—
Even silence starts to rust.

Religion is a dim memory,
A ghost caught in black holes,
A story written long ago
To comfort frightened souls.

There are no children

Painting As Camera

The canvas is so much like a seashore
Where hands comb for a body to the storm

Sometimes a continental piece will shift
These wounds under the palette —

Give her light while looking through the bars
From some more than thousand marks 

The brush of close kissing hair by 
The stroke of your blue in brown eyes 

Stay familiar

Camera Views

I have never tasted your full lips, 
which lack a moisturizing tip. 
Yet, I somehow feel as if I have. 
I watched you break that fresh loaf of bread, and you said to me, 
“You are welcome.”
 Somehow, I could have tasted 
and smelled the freshness of that small piece you offered. 
I felt nourished.
Your

In the begining the earth was formless and void and darkness was on the face of the deep

Slowly a subdued group of people, some sobbing carried
A lifeless body along the stone paved path.' Despite their
Tears and grief stricken denial mindset, the burial must
Take place, the procession wound its way along the mountainside until they came to stop, before a new rock
Hewn tomb its giant circular stone door was at the extent
Of its

kaleidoscopic, geometric
bending, reflecting, dispersing

Begger's Tale

“Come now, my friend, let me help,”
Said the rich man with a camera in hand,
His voice smooth, his smile grand,
As he approached the man in the alley so damned.

“Tell me your story, we’ll capture it right,
For the world needs to see your plight.”
The poor man’s eyes, swollen and red,
Watched the rich man prepare his lens

Freeze Frame

Freeze Frame is a part of the game,
When your running life’s great test.

When you take stock you gotta learn to rock,
You’ll be rolling with the best.

Life is just a movie film and your the star of the screen,
It’ll take you to the places where the glitters never seen.

The camera rolls and the lights are bright.
You

Lights, Camera, Action

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 word for the first time on stage in front of

Who Invented the Motion Picture Camera

who gets the credit for the lightbulb, Dad?
Dad scoffs, easiest question he has ever had
That is Edison son, Thomas was his first name
Ask me again, and I’ll tell you the same

What about the motion picture camera, who invented it?
Dad is bamboozled now, but determined to not throw a fit.
His wife? He guesses, making his wife

Ring Camera Spies

See them gather around you, observing everything that you do, see them on top of the tree, listening to your heart beat and measuring your speech. 

See them sitting underneath the tree talking about your destiny, The wire is running around you and a pudding pan is sitting next to the door and the sharks

Camera

Impressions once taken
by lens, eye and mind
captured now beyond time.

Pictures of friends and lovers
show death and life in the same face.
The camera lays the future bare,
a future often unrecognized.

Vision-shock awaits its appointed hour.

Without that shuttering witness
familiar faces
would fade away in a box of light
without you.

My gallery of timeless treasure!!!

Keeping some memories frozen in time,
Photos can make the moments alive,
Connecting us to our past in seconds,
Some bonds close to heart and some fragile...

Pictures create a button of pause,
We stop and think for the cause,
They make us happy, sad, nostalgic,

Memories

They once knocked on my door,
And I have still kept them with me,
Not only those fond memories, 
But also the unhappy memories 
Of the days spent up in the blues
And the days spent with flawless people

Time cannot steal the treasures
That we carry in our hearts,
Tempting laughs shared in the car,
Special moments captured
