The Importance of Pictures 1



Albums – black and whites
glossy finish
molded hard covers
tiny corner triangles
to hold them
precariously in place

The polaroid age
clouded plastic
stiff
cannot protect
glimpses of life
from dying
yellow death

SLR age
high speed motion
super macros
to see eye's center
to the heart and soul
of some matter

Now, digital
converting zeroes and ones
into
irreplaceable
pieces of life
