Safety in Mind
The conflagration is doused with drugs.
When there is a raging
Where a page turns
And the thoughts are rearranging
As the candle burns;
The fire of the moment spreads.
And the thoughts lick around
The flickering sparks one dreads
Without a signal, without a sound.
A mind set ablaze makes
For a devastating blow.
As a flame simply snakes
Through ideas that damp fire like snow.
Safety comes from a pill.
Some denounce its use.
True comfort makes me still.
And all talk against psych drugs is obtuse.
With the fire doused by chemicals, true
It includes a smoldering of ashes.
It helps to know too
The frame is burned but I save the sashes.

Capturing Magic
In the world of photography, timing is the key to everything. While skilled compositions and technical proficiency are undoubtedly crucial, the perfect lighting can create the perfect photo. Nowadays, we can determine any light ourselves and are no longer dependent on any natural light source, thanks to the developed technology. We can turn every day into a night by using the right filters. And we can illuminate every night to be seen as a day. A typical process, especially in the film industry.
