I haven't posted in a long while- I haven't been inspired since the pandemic. But, about a month ago I wrote this poem for myself. But since today is National Camera Day [which I did not know it even existed], I thought it was appropriate. I Am Camera /2dalimit I see you everywhere I see you brush your hair I see you when you dress, I must say I am impressed I see you wake when it’s light I see you in the dark of night I see you sleep and dream I hear you wake and scream I know when you’re online I see with whom you dine I see you in every room I see with whom you Zoom I see you drive your car I see you go in the bar I see you in your house I am quiet as a mouse I see you at the crack of dawn I see you when the TV’s on I am Camera and I’m everywhere I am Camera- Now do you care I also listen to what you say I know the games that you play I know what you have repeated and I cannot be deleted Privacy is now a thing that’s rare I am Camera so beware Be careful of what you say or do I am always recording you |

reminds me of Big Brother..... the other day I went shopping for ear buds....asked customer service if he would help me find ones that fit my phone. Next day, there was an email that came thru for ear buds? Coincidence? |

Islander- LeeJ- thank you. I just wanted to touch on a few places that cameras may be in use- usually away from your safe abode- beware. |
