Difficult Generation
Abraham born before Jesus
They were born holding selfie.
They booked flight from the womb
Are the children of this generation.
They speak louder without sense
Yet wiser than Solomon himself
They sees beyond their parents
With food remnants on their mouth.
Right in the womb they ate wheat
Before they were born they saw you
What is it you know I don't know
Says a

Calf takes his nap around three, come on by.
He likes having a selfie, though I know not why.
So, I took a close up, and saw his nostril hair.
Calf did not like it, but I did not care.

She Really Wanted that Selfie
She really wanted that selfie
Her relatives said
But now of course
The silly girl was dead
You do not get a selfie in a shark’s mouth said Mr Uncooth
The last thing you see is his giant tooth

When Life Is A Meme
like a selfie
that wasn’t taken
I’m the guy in the street
I know
you’re captioning me
from your side of the road
and the shops
with their massive eyes
are making me too viral

Full Version of a Picture Is Worth a 1000 Words
They say a picture Is worth a 1000 words,
Yet the realisation that all I have left are pictures
Actually Renderes me speechless
Apparently the adage is actually meant that complex and sometimes multiple ideas can be conveyed by a single still image, which conveys its meaning or essence more effectively than a mere verbal description.

Third Grade Recitation
My cousin and I were dismayed
By the kids who were in her third grade
They had no answers to tell
Though they spoke very well
And knew how impressions were made!

They could babble all night
With no fact in sight
Nor any sign of congruence!
Oh, how wise we thought that we

Selfie
I am the slab of clay in your hands
mould me into a shape that you like
I am the blank canvas for your brush
paint a picture, perfect and bright
I am the naked mannequin
let me model all your finery
I am the smile painted on your face
showing the world all is well
I am the contrived version of

Santa Left a Selfie
The two brothers had stayed up late
Hoping to catch a glimpse of Santa
Maybe they had hoped to get his photo.
Santa slipped their phone off the chair
He took a quick selfie and laid it back down.
They would no doubt be delighted in the morning

Picture Me the Selfie
a limited window
to confront the view
a repertoire
of
imagery
in visual representation
to frequent
bloom
perfect
delicate moments
to remind
the frailty
