Let’s take a walk, you
and I in spite of the
weather if it rains hard
on our toes
we’ll stroll like poodles
and be washed down a
gigantic scenic gutter
that will be
exciting! voyages are not
all like this you just put
your toes together then
maybe blood
will get meaning and a trick
become slight in our keeping
before we sail the open sea it’s
possible–
And the landscape will do
us some strange favour when
we look back at each other
anxiously
(Frank O Hara)
