Even the purest love
Requires a little maintenance
From time to time
Requires a little maintenance
From time to time
A shawl
A dress
A woman
Old?
Yes
An old woman
Blending into the landscape
Now gone
Faster than you’ve read this
And soon enough
Forgotten
So I set up in the median
Camera in hand
And let the people come
Reveling in
Faces in the crowd
