Two friends parting, one young; one younger, and beginning a pilgrimage in search of himself. Come with you? I’m not that young – though the rest of my life will not be what I intended, and I’ve intended nothing. I would not have wanted to see you die – but would have wanted to know you ‘til death. You know, men are harder to replace than women, but women are irreplaceable. Perhaps on my holiday – only two weeks a year to visit far-away old friends, that are always too far. Maybe we’ll meet again at 40. In a bar. In Athens. We’ll drink Ouzou and share a Greek whore. We’ll celebrate this moment then pulling at our youth, and reflect that every moment is a poem, that only need be written down as a reminder. |
