Man In A Street (Free verse) by kalikopeli
"If I had a canvas,
I would paint it blue
'cause blue is the best color
that reminds me of you.
If I had a mattress,
I would lean it against the wall
'cause nobody's sleeping here
just memories of a lover six feet tall.
If I had a cigerrette,
I would light it with a match
'cause the flicker burns brightly red,
like strawberries in a patch.
If I had a pencil,
I'd crossout your name,
'cause your name is abusive, rude
and it plays these games.", said the drunk man in a corner of a bulevard
across the street.
And I think to myself never take too seriously nor neglect, the feelings
of a man you've listened to, yet never met.
