CREAUSA: Lost in Troy. (Pause.) Listen, getting lost. (Pause.) That also is an infidelity (Pause.) I walked behind. Wife bearing the food. The flask. The diapers.
Wife under the bundle. The clock. The colander. The old mans vests. Through flaming alleys by clots of rapists whose glistening arses caught the light. The chess set and the fruit cake.
Wives under the soldiers. The flannel and the toothbrushes (Pause.) Turks in Smyrna Romans in Carthage Scots in Calais Swedes in Dresden Goths in Buda Japs in Nanking Russians in Brandenburg Unbelted and unbuttoned they thrust their arms into the well of skirt I did prefer I did To continuing this marriage in another place Prefer to get lost The gutters bubbling with semen notwithstanding The spontaneous stabblings of intoxicated looters notwithstanding I slipped down Traders Avenue and hid AND HE CAME BACK I will say this I will give credit where its He did He did come back A dozen paces boy in hand and dad on back His eyes shouted His mouth hung speechless as a ripped sheet I could have I wanted to That grey and never happy face CREU-SA! Once my name heaved out his gob and stuck to falling arches Once His last call Only once It drifted down with burning papers It sailed on draughts like embers of old Frocks And turned away Triangle of males The three degrees of man I vomited my shame into the shop On all smashed things I added pounds of self disgust And wiping on a dead mans curtain stood up frail But light Widowhood is grief but also chance And falls of cities both finishes and starts
