within a flash

like a tv screen portrays a fantasy scene when the wind blows and turns the green to images wavering in focus


built up in layers from the top down temperature changes the season


triggered by repetition
colourful simplicity combines
a mind with a thought


animated by shadow dance
even familiar yet faked
fade in the sunlight


in a single spot within the rush of creek the sunlight breaks between trees to illuminate a place where with careful manipulation of my shape-blocking shadow-making self I create a change in the density of perception and a subtle, if not outright, integration into the art


reflective water like the softness of a heart that dispels fear replaced with a tear of sadness wiped from the face by a hand that has no arm to move it
