#exhibitionism
exhibitionist and ****** are linked by common need. the people of outer, inner Los Angeles live in houses with huge windows; they cruise one another insolently, unafraid of being watched as they watch; privacy is meaningless—there is only the sexiness of endless scrutiny and quick encounter. he feels the heat, the balance between absorbed and emitted. the camera captures the changing blood flow in her skin. she scatters and absorbs far less than him. consumed within roots of coincidence, the invisible her comes out through his lens; and it reveals the world as it truly behaves, not as it merely appears.

Connections in Infrared
There once was a man from Toledo Who went to the beach in a Speedo:      He swam on his back,      And, enjoying a whack, The ****** let loose his torpedo.

There once was a woman from Spain Who loved to make love in the rain:      She also had fun      Making love in the sun, And always in the public domain.

Amarosa
I see you sit expectantly biting lips   on the extended museum steps leading to a veranda around the building, that invites a flash mob,of your ilk, effervescent, to come together perform and celebrate, nothing in particular,   except giving a shock pleasure to all those marked  "the other" Once you made me believe, together we make a whole, that is the story we live on I was told, I merely listened, I and you missed few beats and steps here and there find us now in pages different, why, even ages apart, "What a fine specimen,!" a pacifist, I can't but appreciate watching your elan. As if seeing an alien in my home ground, I watch the spectacle, gulping down my discomfiture dutifully, while you romance with much finesse,to the cell phone, you cling on as if it's the beau you want to show off. "Wouldn't she make a fine museum piece?" that would point towards the life style, that highlights only the moment present, and constantly on the run to remain there, while past vanishes and future becomes obscure more and more. With a gentle smile for you to pick up, when you are at peace, I move on; more than the museum pieces still living, I am interested in  regular exhibits I easily grasp.

A museum piece of the present impermanent moment
and there shall be a call of the tormented gathered as one where bells peal haunted by the withered will of a yew tree's shawl summoning under its protective veil left from winter's warning tale to those whose summers never fail and those who left their clock to rust yet trust that strike though dull as dust eleventh hour at midnight past too late they fast turn round their heart to wind it back and grind the beat imparted by its creaking sticks which speak of stumps low cut to fit that fate below the mighty oaks who may in pride loud beckon youth to climb great thrills yet use no rope though soon a meeker whisper rose to shake them down to the ground of woes
