Imagery

Barefoot girl in a backless dress

Streetlights on wet pavement


The shadow of a small plane flickers

across the contours of the grassy shoreline


Long-haired boys and short-haired girls

A blue Adirondack chair by itself on the lawn


Wind-blown palms  through mosquito netting

Red flowers on a black background


The smell of chlorine and Coppertone

A big-breasted blonde in a black bikini


Passenger jet streaking over black hills in a twilight sky

A white blouse with black buttons


Red sweater in a black-and-white world

Eyelashes wasted on a boy


Cliche curtains ruffled by a lacy breeze
