Opportunist

[billy]

Eyes hooded crow
perches nonchalant
on fencepost
knows his shotgun
from his staff
oh yes.


Woman in repose
on bench
watches lizard
bask
eyes half closed.

Shadow brushes grass
rustling quills cross-hatch
lizard erased
from picture.

Woman licks lips
contemplates
changed dynamic
.

to the poem.

god, i can't l;ie...i read the comments and now i'm screwed. i want to agree with everyone

my own words shall prevail though. i love the minimalism. that said i think it went just a tad too far.
the snapshots work well in moving us through an image rich poem.

loved the hoody and the unusually extra 'oh yes'
the woman's defence mechanism against unwanted men are good.
as is her feeling of being the centre of attention.
