The photographer

A door slams shut , the outside left to plunder
through the monotonous heat of a midday summer
trinkets gleam like thought clutter

The photographer

my neck prickles, I'm in one corner of the room

hes in the other


I drop my bags and rinse my hair in the sink

water dries crisp over my hot skin

where do we begin...


I thought I knew him

come look he says in here

I will photograph you nothing to fear


You are beautiful

like this emerald i have for you

diamonds for a pretty girl


Over by the veil
my mind wanders

click click click

look at me, now look at me

release yourself


You pig, you toad, you fiend!

give this to me
a keepsake
for my turmoil

my broken dream
