an almost accidental gathering of poets
 
   
 
 
Lawrence Ferlinghetti
 
Number 20
The pennycandystore beyond the E1
is where I first
               fell in love
                          with unreality
Jellybeans glowed in the semi-gloom
of that September afternoon
A cat upon the counter moved among
                                  the licorice sticks
                    and tootsie rolls
          and Oh Boy Gum

Outside the leaves were falling as they died

A wind had blown away the sun

A girl ran in
Her hair was rainy
Her breasts were breathless in the little room

Outside the leaves were falling
                         and they cried
                                             Too soon! too soon!
