Terminal two Lisbon

Amsterdam by lunch

one of those portraits

of some one you don’t know

on a wall in a cafe

could be Lisbon Amsterdam

one of those portraits

of some one you might

recognize from Lisbon

Amsterdam

 

Saber sold hot dogs

on the Nieuwmarkt

lived across the street

couldn’t read

a little guy he brawled

in the red light bars

got him to Egypt 

ignored his constant calls

saw him last at the Zeepost

wouldn’t look me in the eye
