I looked at his photo
He was in some sort of stylistic power-stance
Drawing me in
Leading me to look at his face
His tongue was curled around his upper lip
His curly dark hair fell over his right eye
Eyes that were adorned with light eye shadow
Eyes that seemed to stare at you, into you, through you, and beyond you
Eyes that made you want to take in the entire picture of his face
His face was so many things
Sex
Danger
Love
Care
Dedication
Genius
Risk
Safety
Peace
Turmoil
Loss
Assurance
Creativity
Playfulness
Yet one thing at once
His face made me feel
Feel all so many things that his face was
I looked away
Moving on with a sense of longing
Longing for the next face that was going to make me feel that way
Inspiration: a magazine cover I saw
If you didn't notice the pattern is 10 lines then 14 lines and then 6 lines (so four more and then four less than the original set).
