the real question?

I remember this time when
I was at Van Gogh exhibition
in Amsterdam museum of art,
and now I can recall all the colors
all the shades, all the frames,
how these nuances and tinctures
exploding in my eyes and brain.
but the thing that I remember most
are the Dutch, blond girls in the museum,
with their long legs, low cut skirts, their
tender, white skin and their eyes, yes,
these warm- hole eyes.

now I think that this doesn’t depreciate
the enormous importance of Vincent
in our modern culture,
just explains what kind of man
I am.
