… with boom boom boom,
progressive instants hammer out
of little plastic balls
in ears smelling of citrus,
synthetic cadences beating the day,
percussing streets and houses
while my feet move on and on,
the morning freshness bearing
promises of smould’ring hours to come,
and cars, unheard, slow down, accelerate,
and on I walk and on and on,
reality framed into one hundred
and twenty seven fragments every minute,
while sentences and pictures
swirl around the think tank,
bumping into one another,
Spain is burning, how to barbecue a pizza,
and those 8,000 from Peugeot
soon to be unemployed,
and have I put my keys into the bag?,
and boom boom boom, I march,
light, shadow, light,
a city portion flickers by
in boom boom boom three steps,
I cross two handsome men,
unsmiling, yet their pectorals
under taut shirts put me
in a state of pure euphoria,
a couple, hand in hand, walks by,
leaving a wafting trail of
CK eternities playing with Givenchy,
and boom boom boom,
the road is long but
distance insubstantial
while the music blares…
