a moment in Vietnam

a moment in Vietnam 

Heavy rain had fallen in the night
in the morning, a cable line in the road
and fallen leaves
it was the cafe's phone line
a woman street clear cleared the wet
leaves, the café manager gave her
iced tea
in the afternoon, the locals watched 
a movie that was half forbidden
by the authorities
