An arcadia of imagination

Eivissa ‘91
do you remember the summer
coming onto the sand at caf del mar
end of
may
‘91?
the previous weekend
you had to flee Mallorca
the streets haunted
you hunted
so
the ferry from Mallorca
dolphins strafing the Med
heat and sun
dreamfevers
docking at the port
Dalt Vila up there
the bus into San An
2/300 pesetas in your shorts pocket
nothing else
to live was to live
busting cans of tuna open
down the backstreets of San An
wondering how to eat and drink
is to know you exist truly
as you recall the Caf the first time
and
the next months
all those nights at Pacha Amnesia Es Paradis
all those mornings at Space
catching rides back to San An
