Family Album

Minehead, or Skegness, she never could quite remember which. A black and white, Box Brownie picture. A stranger smirking, she is beautiful. They sit on a low sea wall. A passer-by took the image. The top of my tussled head, the lens was too high - no face in the frame. She claimed there were other lost me-pics, better childhood pictures; I never found them. I have this one thing A monochrome box Brownie snap. Some say foh-tuh-graf. I know it as, ‘invisible me’ in Minehead or maybe Skegness.
