Buses, trains, snaking wildly
through mountains, spinning minutes
not so fast that the towns blur, more
gently, just hazing the edges. Italy is all
candlelight, first kisses, hot little words
circling your mouth like caged creatures.
I pace to prowl, closing in on country,
worrying the wandering weeds.
We want the thick, wet hunt but never
the ribbons from the race.
