Seeing Cassiel ...




I'm reading Gide's The Immoralist -

It cost me a few small coins in The Crooked Book -

The Polish girl had put on an early record by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds -

Taking the coins, her fingers had brushed against mine -

I half expected to see Cassiel standing by the window -

Listening to my thoughts, smiling his wintry smile -
