Analysis of Photographic Existence



Take flight! Set those eyes out, roaming sweet sky,
throw colours underneath succulent clouds,
beautiful wings: holding imagery fast
while snapped from time: your spirit beats wisdom.
Rip the shades of moments, release yourself,
photographic existence: destiny -
it awaits the flutters that glide through winds
as the sun captures nature's promises.

Let no camera fold the ripples which
wander vibrations: to alter the course
of some other - dreaming that they are free.
Fly now; the breath of desire's language
is calling from the depths of greenery;
shivering dimensions across seconds.
