Am I home? (a poem)

Am I? I am.
(At home.)
It’s sunny. And September. And nice.
Though different.
From Barcelona. Where it, too, was.
 (Sunny. September. Nice.)
And I’m writing.
 Very.
  Short.
   Sentences.
For. Some. Reason.
Who knows why?
Not I. And who cares?
Not 1. (That’s “one,” not “eye.”
 Nor “aye.”)
And that’s it.
…is it?
Aye! It is.

 - El Jardinero (hoy extra-Zurdo!), in Montreal

    Welcome home!
    (if only temporarily)
    Barcelona is still sunny. And nice.
    And it’s still September.
    (obviously.)
    Hope your trip was good.
    See you again soon.
    In Barcelona.
    (I hope.)
