Monday morning early
Sunday evening late
A tram goes by, outbound
taking the late drinkers
the restless moviegoers
or the blossoms of girls with their escorts
home
sleep
The conductor on the final run
standing there in his slippers
facing the track
The ladies sit at cafe tables in twos
An old man sits
reading at a table alone
the new day’s news
letting his beer get warm
letting the sky be enough ,
Winter 1956-57
Malaga .
[September 1956/1960]
