From With Candor

This is not
the clean well-lighted place
Hemingway writes of;
the light is too garish,
the dark, too shabby.
Cafe Terrace at Night,
Garrison

Waters to cross, saliva and the sea,
phrases floating as tongue's steerage,
cultures and language admitted and
passed
through the registry of my mouth,
Intimate Immigration,

David Quintavalle
