Everything Has to Do with It
Everything has to do with pigeons,
everything has to do with a tram,
everything has to do with the gaze,
with a letter that is not written,
a cigarette and a guitar.
Everything has to do with locks,
everything has to do with a pillow,
everything has to do with a perfume,
with the buttons of a shirt,
with a dress that falls to the floor.
Everything has to do with a doubt,
everything has to do with another story,
everything has to do with empty streets,
with the platforms, with certain rains,
with goodbyes and with streetlights,
with memory, with forgetting.
