"Je t'adore Paris" part 1

silence of me

 Geometrical atrocities

Fiction blares on loud speakers

Frames stolen and the paintings left behind

This car’s alignment is off,

Pulls upward

The owner should really get this fixed

I brake for a pretty girl who looks familiar

I get out and walk across Pont Des Artistes

I jump into the water and swim to a houseboat named Balzac

No one is home as I have been watching when this family will go on there annual ”grande vacance”

I take a shower

Put on foreign clothes

Make myself a drink made of steam and gin

I listen to the boats pass by

I feel the rocking of this floating abode

I listen to wind

And I realize I am near my willow tree

I put on another mans pea coat

I walk barefoot

The stars cutting my feet

Sit under my tree

Where I waited for her for so many years

My companion

My tree

It must have grown so lush with all the lovers tears it burdens itself with

I pat it on the bark

Walk back to my flat and sleep until it’s dark

Je l'aime!
Very good poem.

"My companion
My tree
It must have grown so lush with all the lovers tears it burdens itself with
I pat it on the bark
Walk back to my flat and sleep until it's dark"

This is both lovely and powerful. Great work.

oh its like one of those movies..you see alone,and you never forget
Car alignement is off,it pulls upwards..as i brake for a pretty girl
walk to a lake,i jump into water and swim to a houseboat
listen to boats pass by,listen to wind
and realize i am near my willow tree
sit under the tree,where i waited for years
walk barefoot, stars cutting my feet
waited for her for years
must have grown in love with lovers tears
ohh i just loved this film,easy going and smooth
a day in a dreamers life..
lovely write..
