Ilha dos Amores #34

Charles Demuth,
I saw the figure 5 in gold,
1949.

THE GREAT FIGURE
William Carlos Williams

Among the rain
and lights
I saw the figure 5
in gold
on a red
firetruck
moving
tense
unheeded
to gong clangs
siren howls
and wheels rumbling
through the dark city.


Com um agradecimento para a Cristina Fernandes.
