RED LIGHT 


She falls into frame with a professional pout 
But the polaroids ignite on seeing their subject 
And the aperture shuts-too much exposure 

Voyeur sucks into focus-floodlit 
The glossy kiss-pit
But as emulsion drips down...down
The aperture shuts-too much exposure 

Come into this room-Come into this gloom 
See the Red light rinsing another shutterslut wincing
The sagging half-wit sister
Pretty, pretty picture
Of an ancient nipple shrinking-that 
Kodakwhore winking 'til the aperture 
Shuts-too much exposure.
