Of elegant languor
with a tint of sepia
melancholy
The romance of
vague longing
and nostalgic bloom
a fading chrysanthemum
perhaps
Taking the promenade
panama hat and shades
suit sewn by hand and
long corporate umbrella
Macintosh and overcoat
by turns repel the
damp and cold
Cognac by the fire
and wistful glances with
widows in the hotel bar
Strolling on with
meaningless purpose
toward Edwardian
disaster
