Not So Fast
The verb in photography is take
to take a picture
is to seize and grip
the conspiracy between light and this
specific place and bones within a face
rearranging themselves so they convey
joy
I say into the ear of the second
that wants to be gone
Not so fast
What I am allowed to retain
is a baby bird version of satisfaction
