An Absurd Bow in Light

light wind blue away the grey
that set too often the Korean sky 

I wear an Armani button up
per chic suit jacket and 
old pajama pants 

formal from the waist up
on the weekend when
I bend out my window for
a cigarette 

old Korean ladies

ooooo
        aaaaa

at the well dressed foreigner
in his saturday best
taking in the sun interlude

they bow

I bow 

my hand
covering drawstrings

they pass and take
the quarter beat of light

in a moment one
of us grasps
