Above the city ...

I stood with Jane above the city -

The glamour of the paintings still clung to us -

Beautiful and strange -


I remembered the sunflower, held by a terrifying hand -

The mermaids's blue green tail -

The small dog with a child's face -


We gazed down at the river -

The slender bridge -

The pale hours of the late afternoon -
