Unbekannt - Paparazzi

Paparazzi, can't make the man.
Paparazzi, can't break the man.

Next to the transit lounge

No-one came today

loaded with duty free
held in white knuckle grip.

the news is running late tonight.

Be-decked with Nikon necklaces
hear the Paparazzi cries.
Under their noses walk

All photo film is fogged.
Celebrities surround
and jab their fingers at me.
They kiss but I can't tell.
Even poor Paparazzi
must have privacy as well.
