impossible to have known it then
not easier to think of now
will forget about it later
but would write about it somehow
the hazy promises of photographs
lazy lies and smudgy smirks
glistening poetry of a moment
montage of jolted quirks
mountains dissolving in a lake
ripples searing with shafts of light
butterfly wings and mossy swings
roads slicked by rain and ochre night
clumps of snow on red-tiled roofs
pile of orange leaves on a field
indigo buds tumbling atop a cave
clumps of snow on a windshield
yellow speckles on a snake
long and rough elephant grass
stylized rooms of people
with faded jokes and plates of brass
friends guffawing in a market
dinner for two on a beach
beautiful shells on slothful snails
and freezing stars, just out of reach
these photographs trace changes,
also trap some old familiarity
but i usually spot a stranger in each of them
and that stranger is me
