Rimbaud month benediction

My Bohemia, the moon, and Louise Varese
128

A little poem to set us on our way. I am still wearing the same shirt, too preoccupied to change. Tonight the moon is full. Imagine that we are readying ourselves for a long journey. Which shoes or boots will you choose? What will you put in your sack?

It is essential that we travel light….until tomorrow…good night.
