Cannon fodder
John Clare Stokes
When he had a Yashica
The teen said
If only I had a Pentax
I’ll be like Atget
So he got the Pentax
and he was still like a Yashica man
So he said
If only I had a Nikon
As Eugene Smith
A Pulitzer I’d win
So he got the Nikon
And he got an
Honorable mention
In the Florida Times-Union
Kodak contest
He started to tell himself
If only I had a Canon
But by then he said
If you haven’t done it yet
In these latter sixties
With a Yashica
Pentax or Nikon
Shoot, even a Brownie
No Canon would help
So he just figured there
would only be one Atget or Eugene
and there would have to be
Only one of him
with or without a Canon.
