I’m an Agent
Before the sedative kicks in
Two Poses– it becomes flat
then slippery
There was a jumpsuit
Travelers’ checks
Theatrical eye-makeup
Negative space
“We’re in a relationship,” she said
“I’ve got your cigarette case”
RENDER ME
RENDER ME
RENDER ME
RENDER ME
Against this terrible pink carpet!
She’ll finish her drink and walk out
You’ll stay a while, trussed as you are,
to contemplate these re-enactments
Her, creeping, frame to frame.
