curb service

curb smile. curb hips. skirt vice. curb service. smiles render women in
noon photograph. flirt skirts. sum sum. isn't laughter light. June waist
with hands on hips. snappy lie. hot light spotlight. friends' arc of
waist. summer's car fender flirt smile. render this rendezvous hot June.
lie laughter. curb service. sum women sum friends flirt. And they
photograph one another. hand in hand. snappy service. laughter lies.
reflection. depart curb. depart friends. left that summer. left hand on
her waist. left June. left baby. left laughter and a smile in the photograph.
Did he want to photograph dreams?

Oklahoma! bound red plumes

 

sun-burned white girls in warrior's headdress

 

smile Against Our Will inside the

 

reservation

face the camera our souls

 

made native souvenirs conquered

 

members in a wink and a smile

junket family trip

natives tour reservation

sun burned sisters

bound warriors read

memories conquered smiles
