The Observers
The bewitching thing
about a still photo
is how a subject's eyes
seemingly lock
with the observers',
smile at us knowingly
and follow us to bed
just shy
of a flicker
and a tilt of the head
that say "yes".
The best exorcise
is to zoom in
on oversized pupils
and catch her photographer reflected.
You knew him in high school.
He used to kick the shit out of you
to impress the girls.
