Pocket Watch

saw a man

in the morning

sitting all alone

his cane

his only friend

a mechanical maze

before him

like to think

he was in Rome

feeding fat pigeons

and sipping black coffee

and not alone

his love tossing crumbs

cathedral bells ringing

crunch of crusty bread

fountains flowing

clouds departed

rays of light

overhead
