It was like I was watching myself on TV from across the room, and I was moving further and further away from the screen. Until the screen was so small that I couldn’t even see myself anymore. (I Saw the TV Glow)


While a song rhapsodized autumn beauty / I came upon your intricate painting /

a pure delight, true serendipity / I learned to find love in a simple thing: /

Like capturing fleeting moments closely / The joyful screams of children at the park, / 

watching the pale moonlight in the dark, / Or listening to jazz religiously. / 

Your masterpiece captures adolescence, / Like a nostalgic faded photograph, /  

embodying youthful exuberance, / for its blissful ignorance of a path. /

Your work is a memory so tender / That lingers soft, a dream I remember.

Wrote this sonnet about an artist's exhibition I viewed during the school year.
