Actual Photographs



Look through a camera
See the same thing
That you see with your eyes

See friends
Strangers
The other side of the street

See other things
That only a camera can

See a thought
Or a split-second blink

Life with a frame around it
Can sometimes look differently
Than it does in reality

You can sometimes see
Outside the frame
As you see in a dream

Your eye and your camera
Can come together
To make a scene
Seem that much better
Or worse
Than it is in being

Thoughts of creativity
Begin the loss of objectivity
And separation from reality
Even in photography
