Romance
I just spent fifteen seconds
staring at a Japanese fly:
my first.
He was standing on a red brick
in the Mitsui Building Plaza,
enjoying the sun.
He didn't care that I was looking at him
He was cleaning his face. Perhaps he had
a date with a beautiful
lady fly, his bride to be
or maybe just good friends
to have lunch a little later
in Mitsui Plaza
at noon.
