For Manolo
With gorgeous curly hair
pulled into a bun, tanning
up there in the sun, watching
the swimmers and their safety,
is how I met him.
At first we found
each other annoying,
each thought the other
rattled on too much
in idle chit-chat and
on the topic of weather.

At first we found
each other annoying,
each thought the other
rattled on too much
in idle chit-chat and
on the topic of weather.
Later we found each other’s
company intoxicating, spending
nights above the clouds
eating pizza and wings,
attempting explanations
of Magic and recording
to remember it under the clouds.
We had to talk during
my shadow. And that
has made all the difference.
