Reverse ghazal daguerreotype

But then – and you speak again,
through sepia’s silent asperity aspect.

But then – and you hear again,
click of the shutter, shatter, laughter.

But then – and you look again,
a ghost framed by a guard of honour.

But then – and you’re here again,
time doesn’t flow, it’s heat thinking.

But then – and you leave again,
oh potential energy forever ready.

But then – and you start again,
behind closed doors, worlds open.

But then – and you are again,
missing you, an everyday task.
