After a long morning
Travelling since seven am
Being checked out by the
Surgeon on duty
For her outpatients
The poet speaks to Dr S
About his art and his latest
Book illustrations
Showing her his note-and
Drawing book.
Then after he’s impressed her
She’s telling him to do
Something with his life
Like exhibit his work.
True.
It costs only a small fortune
And where would he start?
Not knowing anybody here
In Vienna.
He really misses his friends
In Athens
Greece.
The air around the Acropolis.
A tear for Zol
As Ana wrote her prophetic
Poem for him.
He cried but there are no tears
Any longer
She took it with her.
After a long morn’
Some ice cream on a stick
Preferable Magnum Classic
He’s back at his domain
And when he works creatively
The cubbyhole expands.
He’s at ease.
