I thought I'd see "Le Cercle Rouge" this evening


   You and I might watch
   Montand, knocking over
   Mauboussin, in a cow-
   boy shot imagined by
   an outlaw we admire,
   once with the maquis, 
   whose hero gave us
   Queequeg and Typee.




               We might stay up
               'til dawn, stub-
               bing out a cigar-
               ette, good-bye;

               but you and I
               would know that
               we had seen a
               kind of kiss.
