[on In May]
Please don't come, father.
Even though we are far apart,
We've always been so close.
I like imagining you,
Lou, and the little one
Under Californian sun.
Here, it's dark and overcast.
Doctor Eisenstein is very friendly
And he knows what he's talking about.
I see him every day.
He said my hair would fall out.
I've had it cut very short.
Ray came by.
He showed me how to bind a turban,
Like the Arabs
When they travel through the desert.
Sand and drought lie ahead of me.
I'm hungry.
Sometimes, maybe think of me
When you go to the beach.
Your son.
