Artwork Description:

I walked from the big house to the villas In the cool of the late Tuscan night I smelt wheat grass and orange blossom I heard owls and night birds And rustling in the grass I saw twinkling lights on distant hills I felt a thousand years press against my throat I took the shy silence Deep into my mouth and ate it I sensed the dust of a summer night Felt it envelop and Tusconise me And I wished I could have remained In this cool scented darkness Far away from the conversations That these days I am forced to have I would have liked to have turned Purposely off this road Plunged straight into that thicket And become a wild boar, a springing deer Maybe a rabbit or jumping hare With beautifully less to think of Alas up ahead lay my reception And I braced, sucking in the last of the air And spat Into the night dust. of the Road to Tuscany
