this is what i did
(as no-one showed interest
40 years is not too late)
at a civilized hour ´bout

eleven, and coffee and
cognac,lily..
i suffered the work
cafe-

a little old man or
lady wanted their
windows cleaned-
we would sit in their

lovely home amidst
cats,china and tiles and
good food for a few hours
and when the job done

they paid a days work
and smiling bid each
other adieux..
and away

for a bowl of bean soup
fresh from the bakers-
chicken and patatas
a craft of red..
