Alan Perry
Portrait with Vincent (Arles, Aug '90)
In the Café Van Gogh
you captured me
and Vincent together:
he, a cheap print
on the wall
above my head,
stark and intense
in the depths of Winter
with pipe and hat
and one good ear
me, bronzed and relaxed
and brimming with cheer
about to dine
at the height of summer,
on the table before me
plastic flowers
in a pot,
spectacles folded
and a glass
turned down.
