Let's Begin

Curiouser and Curiouser (Vogue UK: Feb 2009) - Tim Walker
The storm never came, but

hello world,
hello

I am still here feeling
your cold, cold wind--
postcards of autumn--
unable to see the moon
(learning to wax)
but still one star (one star)
is visible though shifty, shifting
through the endless sky

At night, before I go to sleep,
I will look outside my narrow
but wide window and see
the star (the one star)
and say:

goodnight world,
goodnight

now, let your storm come
