Yearbook Portrait Photographer - Single

by The Glacial Speed

/
1.
The yearbook portrait photographer, just can’t understand. Her fine art degree in photography hasn’t turned out like she planned. She goes around from school to school taking pictures of math-letes, the jocks and the cool kids and the band geeks and faculty too. It’s unfulfilling but what can she do? She has to make a living. The yearbook portrait photographer, spends most of her days, Wondering how all the plans that she made seem to go so astray. She sits alone in her studio and remembers the dreams of gallery shows, Pulitzer prizes and exhibitions, but now she has this sinking suspicion she isn’t truly the living. But what she can’t see, is what her pictures mean. In purses and wallets and Christmas cards send to distant relations afar, And passed between high school lovers that write on the backs, “Have a great summer!” It’s all lost on her.
