Lisboa Pickup
Pessoa, I offer
to become
a belated body
for your plans,
for soon,
I’m set to arrive
at the port
you always planned
but never really
planned
to leave.
Direct me,
how far past
that famous
bronze statue of you
must I live
to find what
you have left
undone?
If you wish,
I can swing by
and retrieve it
with unwritten feet
