Worthing Chemist
 
The man in the chemist's shop said
"Focus on infinity"
I said "What?"
But he was adjusting the shutter of the camera
And I knew
That like a glass paper weight
The words lay enclosed
In an opague wall of technology.
It was not the fact of what he said
But that
He said it without irony.
He was very English
And helpful
About the camera.
