India

Smoking a cigarette i hail, a woman's face comes near, uplifted on a toilet nail, geese wheel the honking sky, haunt the clouds like deer, i knew her in another life, yellow wraps abound her frame, she lives this way for years, ice and blue her way, colours of no real price, when whatever becomes clear, that unforgiving night, searching for a forgotten name, nothing in here is born, i think of her again, a lover who always gave, blew flame around my fears, shared jokes heard the train, then disappeared.
