Mattatoio

Mattatreetops

When you were sitting in the sun for that hour,

looking at the tree in front of thee.

Did you fix or change your gaze?

Did you look up?

Did you see the flowers?

15.5.23 MATTATOIO

18.30pm

And when you discovered the flowers,

were you really concentrating so much on writing this, sort of, poem then refilling your beer glass,

that you left your bank card on the bench at one of Italy’s busiest outdoor markets and didn’t realise until you had to pay the bar staff?

MATTATOIO 15.5.23 19.00 pm

And do you know how lucky you are?On getting back from the bar.

And it just lying there on that bench?

MATTATOIO 15.5.23 19.15pm
