Being There
Season 2, #12: Paris, France - May 16, 2009 at 4:32 AM
Driving low along the Seine, Dazed like I once was, Skirting the Mendip Hills Above the moor fog. I wanted a photo of that, Like I want a photo of this. That I should be so lucky, When luck is insignificant, And this is everywhere - all the time. Flickering on the water, Bouncing through the glass; The road flashes yellow on black, The rain drips down in layers, The bridges warp to blackened holes, As Sainte-Chapelle tears the sky in two. I am considering the split seconds, The calculations per photon, Envying those in the places we seek; Those who envy us, Those who seek our place.

Thank you so much for reading my work. It means a huge amount to me to have even 1 minute of your time, let alone the attention needed to read and understand these words. If you like what you see tell other people about it - it is the absolute best way to support me and my work and I would appreciate it hugely.
