With unfettered access to the chic from Mombasa to Palm Beach
And all nonsequiturs in between
Every image full of concubine, courtesans, eunuchs, and Turks
Naked and bold, brawling colors mixed with afternoon cocktails
As you know, the Turks are dedicated
Policing every entry, meticulous about proper identification.
Pools of the rich, fêted, unwashed, languishing
In a search for posterity.
Forever posed, caught in a complicity of image.
Today. Now. No matter our state of undress.
