TWO COUPLES
from GROUP PORTRAIT

hardest color is framed in the middle that of his beard has
to dye hair generic brown hair hangs down grayed in the manner
and as that seems to her waist of brown hair
hers has to flow the black hair a slow transition
grayed it's into his beard he associates that carries on
done so in even the frames with the almost unnoticed
shades almost of his glasses black rose his glasses
pulling join the masses of the bring out
a rainbow out of hair the Spanish Anarchists the eyes
of its darkness features of frames instead of
the wire granny his face the copper skin hiding them
glasses make are not of her Yucatec wide eyes
her eyes shine particularly ancestors a bit naive
brighter not compelling the flat nose of the poet
only catching with the you can see and mystic
other eyes but possible on some of fixed on
also radiating exception the sculptures other worlds
the odd wisdom of the not the beaks on visions
and quirkiness of large forehead of the Classic so sharp they're
the curandera the face but the kind hard to share
and the natural seems pretty that lead in part because
healing that much generic some to believe they're so basic
works as much Scandinavian the Mayans came so free of guile
by the character his glasses from China or cleverness
of the hide his eyes the high arch forever skinny
practitioner but the tilt frames of the dieting at times
as anything of the head the huge eyes to gain weight
in the plants confident that light up and perhaps
the fans of smile the enormous to make up
wrinkles brought the casual posture smile in this for rounds
on by a smile right hand on picture open of fasts
and the shine knee suggests inquisitive for health
in the cheeks more character the eyes of for the spirit
may come from it might imply an advocate for causes
a lot of time comfort and who looks for usually lost ones
spent outdoors generosity every detail the best kind
and may have something not just to for which to

wrinkles make for a young act on when pulls the skin
her teeth look poet with possible despite tight over
brighter and experience of the restraints the cheeks
give shape many day-jobs placed on her and forehead
to the chin to his credit by the odd so completely WASP
pulled smooth a closer look binds and it effaces itself
by the broad might suggest strange pressures in the context of
smile she commitment of mainstream those around them
makes the to the slow journalism but complements
simple print working out lips still full the features
dress look of social despite the given her by
elegant partly alternatives stretch of the ancestors from
with the white this sunny smile although Ireland and Mexico
half-gloves portrait doesn't she seems the smile
but more by suggest his profoundly remains broad
the unaffected manic depressive relaxed you open as the eyes
poise in the disorder or the can also see the suit that
way she sits obdurate in her bearing doesn't really fit
the way she stubbornness how quickly doesn't look funny
moves her head that may she could fly in part because
and hands also be part into action of the natural grace
the straw hat of Swedish how much that passes so easily
on her knee heritage she energy rests between them
large leaves holds his in that without knowing it
sway in the breeze left hand small both their hands
by her side between hers body make the same gesture
