MAN RAY'S CENTURY

As outlines in a vista
of skilled dada you twisted
parts of a camera's statements
into an anti artful culture
from an enlisted legend
for an ambivalent millennium
which evokes a graphic rapture
of overcoming all focus of forms
in your transparent calling card
of a bard's penned signature
to witness for a prism's locus
in a culture's discordant intoxication
emerges new inkwell discoveries
channeling all navigation,
day dreams in short films,
photographs as a still life moves us
in exposition following
your metamorphosis of imagery
along inventions on margins
of an indwelling visionary
to take up your energetic invitation
into a scrolled surrealism
for our memory of extras
in elemental impressionism
to complement his century.
