Dusk is recommended
for modest petticoats.
For best light, wait for the sun
to leave its comfort zone.
Capture rhapsody
in more pixels than God.
Press your head against the earth.
Feel the rhythm.
Coax summer percussion.
Join the conga. Be
seen on the street.
Peonies wear long-stemmed heels.
Ants pluck them tom-tom pink.
Look deeper than June,
past chlorophyll and bees.
Stop searching for color.
Think dappled things.
Roses strut runway red.
Shoot them in monochrome.
