Fellow Traveller - John K. Samson[00:00:00]

Rain for the last day that[00:00:00]

I will be known the way that I want them to know me[00:00:02]

Rain for a porter's predictable leads on the darkening stain of my name[00:00:07]

Rain like the morning you left with the international brigade[00:00:15]

A streak of your face at the glass when the train pulled away[00:00:22]

The aspidistra that refused to die[00:00:28]

A miniature camera in a Cambridge tie[00:00:36]

To get that soviet control to crack a smile[00:00:43]

All in our file my fellow traveler[00:00:50]

Sleep for the telephone's silent receiver on[00:01:09]

It's beetle black back in the hall[00:01:12]

Sleep for the bottle that rolled off my desk[00:01:16]

Danced itself out on the floor[00:01:20]

Sleep for the overturned ashtray splayed across an unmade bed[00:01:23]

While I interrogate every word that I ever said[00:01:31]

I fall from buildings into angry air[00:01:37]

Lecture my students in my underwear[00:01:44]

But once I was allowed to dream of you instead[00:01:52]

My dear defected fellow traveler[00:01:59]

How you booked your final passage[00:02:10]

With a passport they paid for[00:02:14]

With a pair of roller skates[00:02:15]

How you dyed your hair and mustache[00:02:17]

Put on a mid Atlantic accent but you couldn't stop the shakes[00:02:21]

When they asked where you had come from[00:02:25]

And you muttered that's a good one[00:02:28]

Though you were never really certain[00:02:30]

Every umbrella down on Portman square[00:02:35]

Opens and closes to arraign our fair[00:02:42]

Theory of something I can't picture anymore[00:02:49]

Forgery for my fellow traveler[00:02:56]

I won't wait to see[00:03:04]

I still believe in you and me my fellow traveler[00:03:06]
