Cova

Cova

Cova spoke fondly of her Andalusian sea
She also spoke five languages including mine

Cova wore no prints on her finger tips it seemed
And
At first I thought she was a Basque spy

Cova carried the scent of rock pools and raw cotton in her hair
We argued over Dali, Freud and Cohen

Apparently
Her husband was in love with old manuscripts
Hence her being there alone

I introduced her to butterfish
Then we watched vultures gorge on something in the gutter

Her naked foot caught mine covertly beneath the table
She hinted there was something special between her and me

Cova promised something extraordinary if I walked with her along the beach to her hotel
Then she was gone
