Looking for Kafka

Looking for Kafka

I walk, I stop, I listen.
Like a tightrope walker.
Labyrinth of streets.

I look for, I wait, I get lost.
Twists and turns.
Winter night, a gypsy plays always the same music

The snow, the sound of the tram deadened,
A halo of light,
A beggar triies to protect himself from the cold.

A smoky café, I enter.
My gaze caresses the faces. Is she smiling at me?
I’m looking for Kafka.
