The shutter goes
open close
a yawning great-grandmother
toothless
black
dark deep hollow hole
open close
a black and white flick's
shallap-step tap
metallic teeth chomping
open close
a munching mouth
crunching
crumbles of photons
scatter off the sealed secret keeper lips
the speed set slow
for full effect
the clapping black hands
collect the Datsun's Doppler shift
as you recede
over the edge of the earth
open close
