Zoom Self-Portrait

Getting set up...

tilt screen forward
back just a bit
slide to left
inch back to right

fluffing hair
sitting up straight
pillow at back
switch off light

smile at yourself
lips held together
head slightly bowed
hair fluffed again

preened, signing in.

The Long View

Traveler in cropped time
through limited space

eager for glimpses
of boundless surrounds

conscious curiosity
with resonant links

to rocks and stars
in deepest time and vaster space.
