Camera Flash

by @TW

I was charcoal drawings, you were taking camera snaps, Frozen moments, mosquitos stuck in amber traps, handicapped, You were Polaroids, stretching out a memory, I'm only broken since my etching now will never be. My work might feel saturated when I get all "introspection-y" But I'm so exposed, we're all contrasted and you look like silhouettes to me, I try not to let them get to me, those polarising statements, I bite my thumbnails inside a lonely, idle basement, And I shudder when I think what state that time will lapse the world into, It lends a resolution, the pics'll frame you and I'll persecute.
