' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' The Very Thought Of You
A shoal
of taxi cabs
swimming yellowishly
down Madison
their dorsal fins
advertising musicals
an A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC
overtakes a SOUTH PACIFIC.
We walk
miserably & myopically
in the sleeting rain
cut across Central Park
a blue blur shrieks past
a yellow streak
all held now
at the hanging traffic lights
all Chinese
lanterny
inside the warm
restaurant we laugh
at the angry rain
throwing itself
uselessly against the glass
you looking like
a copy
of Frans Hall's
THE LAUGHING CAVILER
complete with Cappucchino
moustache
the music saunters
sensuously amongst the tables
'...it's just the thought of you
the very thought of you
...my love! '
