A round lens glaring onward

Flash, Another memory archived

Tap, pinch, zoom

A cheeky grin

The most colorful filters applied

1, 2, 3

Finished

The selfie of the month

Forget the camera, that is not who I am

A shy smile, piercing eyes, and personality that can conquer

Not needed is another system of apartheid

Struggle, cry, shake

A stressed face

So much work to be done

5, 4, 3

Broken

But still trying, so behemoth

No filter, I tell myself

Put on a pretty face

Sigh, push through it all

Tap, scrich, scratch

A surprised smile

A new drawing at last

2, 1, 0

So incredulously close

An obstacle climbed over

Another drawn line

And art block has been broken at last

No filter
