a video

You’re like a video

Glistening in a Lambo

Clip to Clip

Close up kisses

You lip sync to your musical hero

Moving your body to silence

Mise-on-Scene

You leave as fast as you show

In your Fashion, good taste, bad form

looking all cute

You leave after three minutes

Acting all tough   

Reminding me you are gone

Like my passion for the show,

you must go on and be gone

    I had to rewind and play again
    1st read had me imagine you singing in the mirror with hairbrush as a microphone

    Now see it more as an MTV' moment
    Or a metaphor for a 3 minute wonder
    Will be reading yet again
    Probably reading too much into it
    But I love that my interpretation has so many options
    Long story short
    Thoroughly enjoyed

      My intention was to grab your attention in a three minute clip, and leave you to your literary imagination! Thank you for watching, Peto…

          some music videos stay with you throughout life
          but we can never recreate that first viewing feel..
          (a quirky write, love the free spirit energy and uniquely inventive style)
          thank you, dear Poet
