The Summing Up

By: - Feb 27, 2018

Retro

Here and now
Sum of what’s been
Teetering on brink
Fulsome fulcrum
Preparing a retrospective
Four decades of work
Le pain quotedien
La Passeggiata
Arms linked
Past and present
Graceful stroll
Paths of memory
Aromatic archive
Pulled from storage
Dense folders
Slides and negatives
Obsolete analog
Tedious wetwork
Now scanned
Extracting pithy pixels
Secrets of raucous
Boogie nights
Days of wine and roses
Young and immortal
Up close and personal
Remarkable encounters
Dim and dusty
Brought back to life
Priceless moments
Scattered like stars
Luscious luminaries
Flickering in firmament
Chapter and verse
Some quite perverse
Wake and bake
Dancing on edge
Conjuring spirits
That went bump
Titubating in the dark
Fame now framed
Come see about me
