The Unhearable Brightness Of Seeing

by Omar Azam

Take it.
It will be forever.

God imagine
what else could be sent
to make permanent
that particle
of time
before I snap.

The camera
is in me
now.

Your brown eye

dark-
in
my face.

It is infinite -
So is my
power at this
same
particle.

Your hat was
your only
way.

It made you.

Now
You are
bare but
not exposed -

Not yet.

For once,
I have
the chance
to make me
equal
to you.

I
take it away.
You mean nothing
then.

Just
like me.
