your lips tasted of vodka and blood
but I allowed you to leave
I stood smoking in the rain
as I watched the taxi carry you into the city
the people walk by with stony faces
carrying black umbrellas
I sat on the curb by the pub
the piano wrapped itself into my numbing toes
and my thoughts danced softly in the rain
drawing on my cigarette
I thought up poetry
