from Sam Donsky, “Midnight in Paris”

poetryeater:

Art means saying
“here we go!” a lot; money means
not carrying an umbrella
sometimes. These are the things
that will deliver us from zero.
Texture of midnight, day of
rest, pageant for the change
you wish to see in these
clothes. Paris: “I have
done something terrible” —
this weather is the last art
lesson we may ever need.
Evidence suggests beauty
looks guilty even from the moon.
