Frame By Frame

The movie unfolds
A series of stop-action still-lifes

Twenty-four frames might make
A gesture or a word

Forty-eight or seventy-two frames
Might convey
Stillness

A camera takes a picture
To make a frame

Life unfolds
In a series of moments
An in-breath is a moment
An out-breath is a moment

Birth and death
Both moments

We don’t know who or what
Makes moments

We only know
The most important one is

This one.
