You said two words, rock
and tree
 
I heard, Cezanne and zen, and thought
of a hill in France
 
and the argument in the patisserie
didn't matter any more
 
I have bread
not cake
 
the lines on the brow of the hill
wrinkle encouragingly
 
beers and bears
support me now
 
and in Bilbao Sumi Jo
sings to her Yankee captain
 
from every frame in every plane
tears flow
