Still Life

I'll look at your picture 
   again today, 
   but in my mind
You are kinesthetic,
   though my images 
   do not flow smoothly
But jump about in
    unpredictable 
    stop and go,
Attitudes that melt 
   suddenly to find 
   animation.
You are never still
   but keep on trying
   at my idle doors 
Demanding
   Entrance!
   Lamps be lit!
I'll look a bit
   longer at these
   photographic eyes
Picturing again
   the life
   inside.
