Ice cream truck
ice cream truck —
they abandon their castle
to the tide

lentement
du jour au crépuscule . . .
la fragrance des lilas
slowly
day to dusk . . .
fragrance of lilacs
rien qu’une benne à ordures
et cette azalée radieuse
s’épanouissant à côté
nothing but a dumpster
and that brilliant azalea
blooming beside it
la camionnette de crème glacée —
ils abandonnent leur château
à la marée
ice cream truck —
they abandon their castle
to the tide
