ABROAD

That summer I slept
Under a tin roof; rain 
Made early music.
I drank sheep's milk
Rich and quite good
In hot chocolate. 
Two girls sang
Watching lips
To stay in time.
One night I dreamt
I was fighting.
No rules apply
In foreign dreams;
I kicked my opponent 
Who made himself 
Into a wall.
Asked why I limped,
I blamed the wall.
