bang bang

shot. like a beautiful girl in the park who got hit in the cross fire of some big throw down. didn't see it coming. too busy looking at the trees, the sky, the way the birds dance across it. didn't see the flash of imaginary bullets capture her skin in the arms of the sun. shot. like a friend, not like a stranger. as if this picture could tell them more than a thousand words about her but would any of them be true? well i suppose that's up for debate. everything in fact is up for debate. shot. like a bird out the sky, a triumph of such over whelming power. shot and it didn't even hurt. a capture of time we can now hold in our hand. a tangible memory. shot and it didn't even hurt. shot no looking back. shot and all you want is it to be done over and over again. your eye to the lens. the aim at my heart - bang ; you got me now.
