Magpie Tales: Exposure














You squeezed me in this photo,
caught me with your lens.
You crushed me with embarrassment
as I exited the 'Men's'.

You snapped my desperation,
and sure as eggs are eggs,
my arms in imitation
of my awkwardly crossed legs.

You sharpened up your focus,
and after the third take,
reminded me, hysterically,
of my obvious mistake.

But, as I made off for the 'Ladies',
I overheard someone
call out to you,
"Hey Mister, your flies are all undone."

I've decided not to receive awards here. Not that I am grouchy or unappreciative, but I am often tight for blogging time. I'd rather be posting something new and responding to your comments. A heartfelt thanks to all those who have considered me for a nomination.
