The Smile Of The Eyes Notting Hill Carnival 2019
A pretty young thing smiles with her eyes
Staring into the cold mirror of the lens
As if there was some kind of soul inside
But it is just an arresting net for fragments of time
Meanwhile, her friend looks intently at the girl behind
Emotions dance like fireflies in the air, almost tangible
While destiny sits on the sidelines with a knife…
