Photography

All photography is autophotography.

The camera also hears, the photograph sounds.

Then he stopped taking photographs and the photographs started taking him.

The whole universe shifts every time a camera clicks.

A glassy essence in love with reflection.

Stilled to ecstasy.

Being is just a snapshot of becoming.

Arrested by the feeling of flowing.

The photograph nobody remembers taking.

The revealing blindness of desire’s obscure camera.
