Sumission [#13 Sam]

Submission

         for Sam

On-line words are captured, images edited. Behind the screen you're the wizard weaving magic: a yes, we-want-your-art; a sorry, this-isn't-what-we're-looking-for. Acceptance and Rejection rule, but only if Submissions are made.

My Admission? I've never wanted to be captured and edited, manipulated, hugged. But my photos and poems want so much more than I can offer. They have birthed, taken breath, learned to walk, laugh, run. They want most to fly. And you're their guy, the one with the wand, the man behind magic, your curtain a screen.

They want to soar on your screen, syllable-by-syllable, pixel-by-pixel, portraits of poems in flight.
