"Latent Image"
by Jeph Johnson
Yes, I notice
on Instagram
her smile
beaming brightly
from behind
her virile firewall
Valentine
who is no longer me
(or my concern)
for she is no longer mine.
It must really
piss her off
that I think about her
more than he does;
and that she's
on my mind
more than his.
She never snaps those selfies.
Those negatives lay undeveloped
in the back of her mind
where I used to be.
