. You wouldn’t think with such a gaze Captured as she turns her head You were in the presence of such a craze That could put the fear in any god Trusting pets cats and dogs As well as poor servants so in need As to be in our employ It’s a stupid look . . . You find it in almost every photograph In gilded frames with ivory stands On parlor pianos in curtained living rooms Among the pathetic curios they always buy There’s a lot of money being made These days creating images that are not true Either generally or in particular To the subject of the pose Still she isn’t as a rule Unkind to those she doesn’t know Unless that moment’s ineptitude Puts her in the mood . |
