FROM LUBJANSKA BANK

She is still there
the woman in the forest

sometimes there are children

the sun is still shining
and it is always that time

where Spring tilts into Summer
a time of new leaves

there is a cool breeze
there are trout in the river

and somewhere safe
a small and perfect cabin

it is a good dream
worth having

but it is leaving him now
because he is concentrating

on the old woman 
with shopping bags

who zig zags down the street
moving pretty fast
