on polaroids

and you, always with the pretty pictures
rendering flash frames of unapologetic aestheticism
full of twilight skies, idle Americana,
and transitory splendor.
from flesh to ink to zeros and ones

you are hot, with 3T’s.
you are edited perfection.
you are downsampled, pixilated fiction.

and me, deciphering corner shadows and rear view mirrors,
of a jpeg illuminating my screen
fleshing out the dialogue of absence
beyond those clean white borders.

i will be reading with becca and others at Porter Square Books, 7:30pm
i would love to see any and all of you.
and i am almost comfortable with writing here again - almost.
