Background: "Out of the Picture" by Gristo inspired me to write this poem. Thank you Gristo.

Put on a subtle grin,
Have the instinct to pose perfect,
One to four second clinks,
Time to become the most luscious rose,
Organise your face not to shatter,
Bat your eyes,
Ogle the flash shutter like an alien,
Only don't blink or bend,
Try to pretend it does not matter then
Have a look at what you have become!

Wow! I really like this Amazon and I'm flattered that my ramblings helped you come up with such an enjoyable piece. I'm particularly jealous of the tightness of it all 'Ogle the flash shutter like an alien,' stood out for me in particular. :)
