bold strokes
on an empty canvas
photography
and seeing existence
through a photographer’s eye /
angles
shadings
themes
uncluttered images
pointing
at the truth
complicated images
stripped
to the bone
thinking of you, poet,
showing the lens
your soul
thinking of you, poet,
with the mystery in your eyes
staring
intensely
into the lens
pulling
the viewer
into your image
pulling
the viewer
into your beauty
pulling
the viewer
into your intelligence
and the lens
there
in front of you
like a lover /
pointing the lens
again
at you then...
capturing
your hunger
capturing
the raw
sexuality
of your body
capturing the want
and the desire
and the perfection of your eyes
capturing your flesh,
so perfect
in its desire
and then moving closer
to your heat
closer
to your flesh
closer
to your mouth,
so beautiful
and erotic
so sensual
and hot
so full of philosophy
and poems
so full of fire
and passion..........
and the battle that rages
within your beautiful poet’s soul /
and that is what poetry is, poet ..........
battles
distances
and focus /
images
imagination
and truth /
and the way
existence looks
through your beautiful eyes
(pause)
There are so many paths up the mountain, poet ......
so many different trails
the mind can take
to get the spirit where it needs to go.
The writing
in the morning
is my navigational tool.
It sets the direction for the day.
It sets the tone
and the focus.
It is meditation, poet,
and prayer.
It is thought
and travel.
It is movement
and desire.
It is a declaration
that I seek clarity of thought,
clarity of action,
clarity of purpose
and focus.
It is my transportation, poet .......
it is my balance ..........
it is my seat at the coffee shop
at the edge of the universe.
