Two Man in Milan
We bend around the road. She crosses
The lanes. The white flash flash flash
Does not concern her: her alien
Style; her foreign land. I am going to mine
Alone. I am losing alone again.
But could this be profitable?
I watch words on the tip of my mind’s lips
Go by; and I hate those kinds of lines.
But when I am bored
And dumb, I record some,
Because when I am more capitalistic I will sell.
I should be
An especially better Buddha though. But I can force…
…What is it? This is exactly the nothing of me currently, as I am not
Even up today
Yet, and it all seems
Already lively: she must not
Have thought that, surely? Was that me?
But fine don’t
Turn with the road, my lover—go straight
Through all the railings and take all our wanderings
Away so we can stop
Wondering about…
…Her hand on my leg, which is very
Steadying
Before a flight. Bravo.
