Wisdom

Marc Carver

As I notice I am crossing london road
I see a man sat on the other side
he looks homeless
but doesn’t care.
He holds a bottle in his hands,
one holding the bottom,
one the top.
If he thrust it in front of him
it would feel like a presentation
an award
but he holds it too close for that,
like it is the most valuable of everything he has.

He keeps staring at me
so I give him a nod
as if there is some true wisdom between us
and the more I think about it
the more I think he is right.
