Lines from a Movie I Haven't Seen
Lines from a Movie I Haven't Seen
A fake waterfall is my favorite terrain feature
in this cut,
in this old pastry wrapped in walking,
here.
I watch the river subsided to half its depth
from below the plane trees,
next to the housing development,
where, just to be dangerous,
I walk on the bike path,
and laughing, waving tourists walk toward me,
toward downtown, one of them yells
that he’s never been to this city,
what should he see,
I eat an ice cream,
watching them,
and that’s when,
yes, for me it’s still
that fake,
weirdly constructed,
cheap waterfall,
smelling of chlorine and mold,
that I first saw
when I was thirteen,
and I was convinced
that it was simply the most beautiful
thing in the world,
because the sound of it was real,
that’s my favorite place
