The Seen & The Unseen


The seen and the unseen 

Such an essence of being seen within the unseen 

Not in the sense and gratification of being unseen because you are seen 

As if your on screen 

A directed play 

From a projector rather projected 

Displayed in 4K 

Definition amplified through lies 

Pixelated 

Cultivating chaotic

 blurry 

speckles 

One’s spectacles 

Being reconstructed 

To tune the noise 

Reduction 

Of 

Adjustments of one’s lens being obscured 

Filtered through a tint 

Of grit to one’s shadows 

There’s not any vibrance

The portrait of oneself 

Seem to deteriorate the brilliance 

Of depth within one’s breath

Through the sharpness of a black obsidian mirror

Shutter of sound 

Gets replaced with mutism 

A true depiction of the soul 

Becomes cropped out of the picture frame

Exposure to truth

Highlights 

The contrast of façades

Saturation has less brightness 

Cultivating black point

Seeking warmth from the void 

Whilst falling deeper into the abyss 

The time-lapse 

Slowing up your sense of time

And senses to perception

Leaving you to portray 

Your focal point from vignette
