The Way to the Light


Capture the old and new in one vision.


How does one transform words into
brooding tributes to the vision?

I can not clearly sketch this life,
this tale of fellings, no meaningful way
to expose and bring it to light.

The words of vocabulary hardly qualify
to induce the feeling or to invoke
the image of everything
I need to express so desperately.

I take it on.

I never had the choice, a life
demands telling and so
I tell.

With every tool I can master
I will probe these happenings
I will document the depths
I will catalog this universe
with images gross and fine.

What this life has happened to be:
I will record a life as it is.
