Interval

The Interval

I drank a city, the smells , the debts, 
the clouds of shutting doors and shuttered 
widows (and widowers)

 their new TV’S, the dream  drug 
that takes away your mind, 
your place: 

 some police look at you like your about
 to die, or something like that
 and I return to the interval ( a Beckett  play ?)

I wait for the clouds and the 
shuttered cast  to pass by
