Untitled I
The night seems to hold
a promise of enlightenment
to the insomniacs with an open mind
for the past few nights
my mind is like a high-speed camera
taking pictures
of these concepts of words
and ideas of poetry
but they pass by like fast cars on a freeway going at 70 miles an hour
and I sit on the side lanes
trying to grasp every detail of it,
capturing the entirety of it in 100 frames per second
inside this dark room
in a painful process of developing
I turn the negatives into photographs
photographs that I can hang up the wall
so everybody could see
the beauty of being awakened by the night
