as a gallery
ran into old friends -
old people waiting for the bus
i stepped on a dog turd
drank cheap wine -
ate horse meat tartar and drank venetian sparkling wine
complementary of the old bar tender
old guy selling cold cuts -
he's been doing it for 65 years and he is 78 years old
old friend opened art gallery -
there are hookers across the street talking to each other in some east
european language.
people park on intersections - buses get stuck
maybe i will extend my stay
go to a town on a hill near trieste to visit my uncle -
he has a bike i can borrow and slovenia is just 3 km away -
i can just ride across the border and see another new county-
there it looks like the ozarks in missouri -
carsic rocs underground rivers
stalactites and stalagmites caves
in milan i like the cheap hotel signs -
seedy places for drugs deals and hookers
names like montecarlo - acapulco san francisco -
who knows if they will be still be here in 20 years?
i went to my old block
they built new condos around the block
i went to an old repair shop to get a lens fixed -
a man still doing the job in the back -
2 days - 80 euros -
i remember his partner old man with kind eyes -
the last time i saw him he could only talk with a machine he had to hold
on his throat -
i see his pictures on the wall -
i dont need to ask to know he has passed away -
i ran into people
haven't seen in ages
borrowed a bike - the city feels smaller -
i am happy to live in new york -
i see things in a different way -
i like to visit here
but being here makes me appreciate new york more
what there is granted here is an extra
but at leat here in milan public toilets are way cleaner and usually
people flush.
