Is your photo attention for me?
Mama is bad
she doesn't look
at my painting
she hides her eye
behind the camera
and in her mind she makes
her own painting
of me
another Helena of me
with blood on her hands
an angry ******
with a cool belly
for hot men
a Confident-Blue
belly despite the voyeurs
at mummy's exhibition
who think they see me
while they fantasise
about a 'fille fatale'
pleasing them
Painting "The Painter" (1994, Marlene Dumas)
Ink "Confidence Blue" by Monteverde (California)
(Helena of Troy)
Collection "Take a picture, now"
