Four Frames

there are four frames
where if you look carefully
the wheel spins without a hub
everything aligned perfectly
they way if you watch a wheel spin
and it goes fast enough
then you might actually think
that you are going backwards
there's four frames
where the balance and color and exposure
is so proper
it would make you cry
it would turn you to mush
there are four acts to it
enough to make anybody
want to become a painter
the pressure and proximity was so spot on
each finger was an airbrush
there are four days left
of my being near to you
and the crashing down is so complete
that i think i am already dead
