Pin-Up
Her red hair
tawny as a fox.
*
The cameraman, I am
nor rain, nor cloud, nor fog.
*
I mist the zoom
with vaseline.
*
I ground her
she floors me.
*
Her smile rare
& fast as gun flash.
*
Her voice
a smoking growl.
*
Just put your lips
together and blow.
*
I point and shoot
in Kodachrome.
*
Beware! On the
edge of a canyon.
*
The earth moves when
she shouts Shakespeare.
*
I shake & scatter
like lens flare.
