One Picture


People always say

that a picture

paints a thousand words.

But a thousand words

can paint

such a vivid picture.

I open the book

and flip the pages.

My mind can

fantasize scenes

that no camera 

could capture.

Sure,

a button is

much quicker to press

than reading a book.

But think about it,

would you rather

watch and see

only one

or make and create

infinitely?
