The Girl in the Black Raincoat

-The girl in the black raincoat

patent vinyl

reflections distorting

buildings, faces, lamps streets

rainbow

appearing, streaking

she quickly moves against the tide

human traffic

 

Following, not stalking, larking

Between briefcases

P&Ls

I watch

She stops

A well turned calf at a coffee stand

Striped green and white

Umbrella

Playing against her coat.

 

Whispering caio

To mr.coffee

She turns before re-entering the stream

Stares at me

Lorenesque cheekbones

Full pouty lips

One strand of hair

Dares out of placement.

 

A smile of recognition

At my appreciation

Then on the move,

Eaten completely

Entering one tall building at a single bound.
