Otto is getting his
eyes examined
next door. He can
never see what is
(clearly) right in
front of him. Or
else he forgot it
was there. Or it’s
just a bother to
try.... I’m at
the hippest
Starbucks ever
sipping a hot
cocoa. This is
where I wrote
“Love Poem
(Tentative
Title).” An
odd thing
to remember.
Back then it was
Torrefazzione. It
is a chilly day in
San Francisco.
They’re even
talking snow(!)
in the hills,
the Seven Hills.
Everything looks
pretty now. I do
wish Otto were
here to see it.
