Akasaka, from
A moment of cautious hope,
Thirty minutes late.

Miyashita Park,
We held hands in Shibuya,
We kissed on the stairs

Aoyama, a
Day of Paris and queueing,
Opalescent nails.

Ginza after dark,
Octopus and old-fashioned,
A black dress, my suit

Ni-chou-me, lemon
Sours, Italian jokes,
Stumble home with me

Ebisu, in blue
After weddings and babies,
Pizza and a film

Shinjuku, a shirt
For warmer days, a night of
Sunsets and pasta

Meguro, two bowls
With dumplings and rice, a walk
Back home through the rain

Shinagawa, to
A place far away; promise
You’ll come back to me
A Tokyo love story
