1.
At 6 o’clock in a city tavern
On Wednesday evening the autumnal air was frigid
When will you light the open-fire
I asked the attendant
In June, he replied

It was $4 a bunch yesterday
I say pointing at the $6 chard
To the middle-aged shopkeeper
I was 18 yesterday, she says.
I am back in the home I know
