set, zoom, focus.
click, flash, snap.
done, stored, captured RAW.
what then is missing?
the shutter speed,
the aperture f-stop,
all set for proper exposure.
the flash and the light,
they all seem so perfect,
they all seem so right.
then what is it that i am missing?
what is it that i want?
how, oh how, do i capture
a moment that is gone?

i like circles
circular motions
revolving doors
planetary rotations
i like circles
ferris wheels
and carousels
such dizzying notions
i like circles
the sun
the moon
and what’s in between
the stars i have not yet seen
i like circles
self-referential
circular references
things that end
in the same way
they begin
i like circles
