Camera EyesI see life through a digital camera In shades of grey Or in a tone of sepia Or in an alien neonCamera Eyes
Where everything becomes strange and distorted With no flashes or flickers Just quick clicks And no film Just pixels that eventually get deleted Or images that are erased by accident
