a shot with a Pentax
a moment in time
something in my throat stacks
in order to make this rhyme
a pause and a click
beauty and facts record, one instant.
a look back at an younger Simon

here is how it was then:

Frugality through busyness
Love was all abode
it was none of my business-
who she was, all that time ago.
and yet i searched
one with often different colored hair
'i'll take one heartbreak to-go' were my last words

and everything changed from there.
