Camera-Shy |
| Here’s me in 1981 |
| Squinting into a sinking sun |
| Ankle-deep in the Pacific |
| In the foreground are my friends |
| Grinning madly at the lens |
| They look heliolithic |
| Again in 1993 |
| A Polaroid you took of me |
| In a long-forgotten loungeroom |
| A hand outstretched before my face |
| The nervous smile, the downcast gaze |
| I didn’t know myself around you |
| You seem surprised |
| And I see why: |
| You just realised I’m camera shy |
| So if it’s not too much to ask |
| Let’s just let the moment pass |
| I have no wish to be reminded |
| Of just how awkward I can be |
| Please don’t point that thing at me |
| Your eyes are widening behind it |
| You seem surprised |
| And I see why: |
| You just realised I’m camera shy |
