Old Cameras

Old cameras in black,

In Black and White,

For a white no flash light,

For a black again and again to click!

a life He knew,
buds of His olive tree-

Who posted photos on flickr
All naked and clean
But rated, "Obscene"
By Rabbi, Priest, and the Vicar!

Photos 

are appearances

already not seen

gone with the wind

on a windless day~

inexplicable stories

which

never were true~~

in his day none were more surer
Painted 'photos' were his sure thing
fame then&now to him thay did bring
art

Fumbling, foraging , through frames,
Strangers in photos,
Calling from a distant shore
"Come, join us, be loved once more"

He looked at their photos -
so many had gone;
and soon he would join them
(it wouldn't be long...)

A Newspaper

Today 
I read a newspaper, 
In it was half a column 
On a people starving and dying, 
The rest of it was : 
Photos, 
Crossword puzzle, 
And faded letters.

My buddy Andy is a real cool guy
He takes his paraglider out to fly
With photos he's a wiz
Andyland's his biz
To meat without scales he's said goodbye!

Premium Member Stillness speaks

Still 
photos
suggest movement
and story
and memory~
as do words 
on a page~
but both words
and photos
are never other than
Still~

Premium Member Mars is empty

Mars

The red one

Is often

Depicted as empty

Yet..it seems

Something appears

Photos by rovers..

That something

Confirms the

Emptiness...

Premium Member THANKFUL FOR CAMERAS

Today I’m thankful for cameras…
Whether we’re taking photos of
people,
sunsets,
or birds,
A camera has a way of capturing poetry
without the need for words

The Perils of Internet Dating

There once was a granny called Vi,

With dentures, peg leg and glass eye.

Many photos I’d seen,

And expected a teen -

Who says that the camera can’t lie?

Premium Member phones and photos from the fifties

black and white fifties
photos used to be priceless
film was costly

black fifties phones
attached to a wall
shared by parents, children discouraged from usage

Premium Member Photos With Boob Flashers

Crazy and sixty, Sam jazzed up his tone.
It’s Fat Tuesday, yet he is all alone.
Hat with feathers
Plaid not leathers 
Boob flashers captured him on their I-phones.

His mother's wedding

Oh Mum, was it just too much liquor?'
He added, 'I'm not here to bicker -
and although I don't care,
in the photos i'm there
at your wedding...in fact, I'm the vicar!'

Premium Member Utterable Cynicism

    In photos we smile, we appear happy
       even if we feel kind of crappy

    ‘Pictures don’t lie’ – likely not true
       kind of like ‘Darling, I love you'

Premium Member Immaculate Conception


When I found photos of the reception,
I asked Mamma, "what is this deception?"
She said, "Don't be silly,
no one used their willy,
you were an immaculate conception!"

Unmothered

Neglected by you, 
The simplest form of abuse

Not photos taken, so none to fade
Ransom for love still unpaid

Might as well have given me away
You were a mother only in name
