I see you drinking at a fountain with tinyA
blue hands no your hands are not tinyA
they are small and the fountain is in FranceB
where you wrote me that last letter andC
I answered and never heard from you againD
you used to write insane poems aboutE
ANGELS AND GOD all in upper case and youF
knew famous artists and most of themG
were your lovers and I wrote back it all rightH
go ahead enter their lives I not jealousI
because we never met we got close once inJ
New Orleans one half block but never met neverK
touched so you went with the famous and wroteL
about the famous and of course what you found outE
is that the famous are worried aboutE
their fame not the beautiful young girl in bedM
with them who gives them that and then awakensN
in the morning to write upper case poems aboutE
ANGELS AND GOD we know God is dead they toldO
us but listening to you I wasn sure maybeA
it was the upper case you were one of theP
best female poets and I told the publishersQ
editors her print her she mad but sheA
magic there no lie in her fire I loved youF
like a man loves a woman he never touches onlyA
writes to keeps little photographs of I would haveR
loved you more if I had sat in a small room rolling aP
cigarette and listened to you piss in the bathroomS
but that didn happen your letters got sadderK
your lovers betrayed you kid I wrote back allT
lovers betray it didn help you saidM
you had a crying bench and it was by a bridge andC
the bridge was over a river and you sat on the cryingU
bench every night and wept for the lovers who hadV
hurt and forgotten you I wrote back but neverK
heard again a friend wrote me of your suicideW
or months after it happened if I had met youF
I would probably have been unfair to you or youF
to me it was best like thisX
