Bonsoir Tristesse Poem by Stephen Brian Brady

Bonsoir Tristesse



He saw is face reflected
in the convex of a spoon
and all the rim was indigo
and a curve of silver moon

the little god got maudlin
at the harbour-side bistro
when someone played Susannah
from a corner radio

and deeper into vin rose
verging on tristesse
he reached immortal limits
with American Express
