Honorable Mention Consolation Charles Levenstein We made one wrong turn And walked across Sao Paolo; Fought traffic, fought noise, breathed Air when we could, smog when that Was all available. The street we sought Went into hiding, others, many others, Leapt forward, isn’t that an interesting Shop, look at the construction, I’m Remaking my face! Until we were Far from our objective – Not Tiffany, not the museum of Portuguese antiquities and obscure Musical instruments – The museum guards enjoyed cross-cultural multi-lingual Portunhol and told us to take the Consolation bus. We counted our change and the guard said Watch out for robbers! -- I thought I was but They said, Apparently not – The route went on for miles, For days, for an eternity of twists Until the driver found the very street On which we went wrong and remedied our error. Consolation prize. |
