Something About This Picture
Paul A McHugh
Something about this picture is telling me a story I want to know
A story so old, no one seems to know or care
Something about that strand of hair flipping across your forehead
Something about that sass in your slightly curled lip
Something about the cold wind flipping through your scarf
Something about that look looking back this way
Something about this picture is telling me a story I want to know
Something about this picture is telling me a story I want to know
Something about this gravity pulling me in
Into eyes brown on a winter morn
Where the stage is set, but the actors aren't there
Act one scene one
A comedy or tragedy I don't really know
Something about this picture is telling me a story I want to know
