A Song for Andy Formula One
.
i am listening to a new recording of the goldberg variations.
the whole world is on fire and Ernest Becker thinks we are dead.
in Florence we searched for a monk’s pharmacy
drank pom juice and stayed very quiet
in a medieval castle.
.
Then Andy drove very fast
very fast
very fast.
.
When the garden closed we took refuge in an empty church.
There was always more gelato and cinghiale,
and of course more wine.
But Professor you still have not told me
why we came to live in this ephemeral life.
Perhaps we did die like Ernest thinks,
and the memory of Andy meeting Nan
falling in love in their teenage years
was just a dream.
.
That’s because
Andy drove very fast
very fast
very fast.
.
