"Photo-Life Shabbat"   [Reflections on Chris Orwig's Book Visual Poetry - Chapter 3:5 ] (Exodus 20:8-11; Matt. 15:3-8; Mark 2:23-28 )

“To those who do not know Shabbat”,
The Rabbi said,
“It’s pleasures and its pain throughout our lives –
Try this instead –
Try just a bite – a tiny morsel – just one hour –
It’s succulent!
Then soon you’ll find your hunger grows –
How fast time went!”

“To those who do not know the photo-life”,
The teacher said,
“The way it changes how we live, awareness grows –
Try this instead –
Try just a bite – a tiny morsel – just one hour –
It integrates!
Then you’ll soon find your hunger grows –
Life fascinates!”
