Reflection
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008I think back to tall buildings
wandering through the labyrinthine Bamberg streets
sandkerva
fischerhof
tonight it’s particularly strong
the sense of being in many places at the same time,
through many times
seems
palpable
beyond that
the lights off in the distance and the unbrdiled sense the world was finally
waking up from history
somewhere between 1988 and 1991, I ran across your path in European splendor
maybe it was Bahnhof
or a cafe
or a bierkeller
somewhere
sometime,
we crossed paths
Out there it the lounge blue nights
which I now look for here in the Bay
Left Coast and sometimes Left out.
Sadly our little commune of time and distance doesn’t quite cut it
“A mirage will not take away your thirst.”
