Our backsides don’t see the stars
the seeds of our eyes hypnotized
mesmerized suspenser
on the flapping sheet
etchings of a classic
flick moths flutter and cling
seeing shadows drawing ever nearer
on the grassy knoll
sunflower eyes expand
as the sea explodes
and Brody’s one hundredth pronouncement
stunned and slow backwards tow
“We’re gonna need a bigger boat…”

illuminating the whodunnit
with an old timey lantern -
her Nancy Drew silhouette
prim and proper.
this giant suspenser -
susurrus of stars in her ebony eyes.
it’s momentous the aha moment -
the page turner in the shade.
