051310h What Were You Doing Poem by Manonton Dalan

on the other side of the tower
there's a new gadget; camera
it can take pictures; polaroid
hook-up to telescope; neat
nobody is in line; i check price
enough for burger and fries

i pointed telescope to my house
through the open window and took
picture; i pull the tab and waited
for a minute and there it is so clear
i hurried downstairs like flying; fast
i made copies and one on the fridge

***
story i watch on tv
