| The Worst Photograph Ever Taken Of Me She hangs it on her wall and makes me feel quite uncomfortable. Whenever I'm over I feel like crawling underneath. I wish she'd give it back, the worst photograph ever taken of me. Now she says she thinks I'm cursed. She compliments me on being well versed, In all of the excuses I could give to get it sympathy, mmm mmm. But she still won't give it back, the worst photograph ever taken of me. Now picture this! Then picture more! Picture me pulling her to the floor. Attempting to save face. Preventing disgrace. Relenting's such a waste for them all. Just let me fall. Now I don't know what I was thinking. (He goes home to his dictionary.) Time goes by in the blinking, (Finds his face beside the word 'homely.') Of the eye of the lens capturing it all for posterity. I hear the generations laugh at the worst photograph ever taken of me. Now picture this! And picture that! Picture me pinning her to the mat. Opening clenched hands. Revenging her plan to lessen this man before them all. JUST LET ME FALL!!!.... Silently...gracefully...from the family tree...from the family tree.... She says she thinks I'm cursed. She keeps that 2"x3" inside her purse. I don't want to sound negative but something's developing in me. And my whole future's looking black since the worst photograph ever taken of me. But I swear I'll get it back, the worst photograph ever taken of me. It's written right on the back. It says "The Worst Photograph Ever Taken Of Me." James Clark | |
