Our Man in Europe/dave delacroix/ "Song of the Slaves."

(dedicato: Giorgia B.)


Cantata?
Psalm?Or Blues;
"Mein heimat?"
"Mia Citta!"
Or, "the Town
I loved so well...?"

Song of your heart
when U
were just a Girl,
or a young boy
in love?

Guitar! Guitar!
Bring it on Home, NOW
I am so far away?
-a Cantata
a Tarantella,
a chant, a psalm
like a Prayer that's words
I knew, and
like YOU
thought I would never
forget?

 -How U looked?
(love dat dress!)
What we saw!
First kiss
and More...somehow, now
buried in Our Days
- TOO many days -
fraught with Tomorrows?

Song of the Slaves,
the ones that LAST,
the survivors; song
of KINGS, song
of YOUR yearning,
out-lasting
your faded photograph
and that ONE choice memory
that we take to the grave:
LOVE
and YOU?
 -I take with me...and smile.
