We went up Montgomery
And left on Columbus
To see the light posts painted
Red and green. We decided to have
Some cannolis from Stella’s and buy
A book from City Lights.
I wonder how much a calzone is?
Too much you answer.
The signs on the stores read,
Giordano’s, Café Trieste, Gelato Naia
And the bus rolling by says,
When the moon hits the sky
Like a big pizza pie that’s
Amore. And weary Italians
With hats and sunglasses drink
Coffee and watch people with
Cameras pay $15 for a calzone.
I’ll be back, in some Italian daze
Like out of a Fellini film wanting
A $15 calzone and an aranciata.
