Traveling Europe in Haiku by Rohan Quinby

PART I: GENEVAJust here, GenevaGood food makes me weep sadlySo f*ck you, NashvilleHere, the Rhone beginsGaze into its blue green depthsNot the CumberlandWalking through marketCheeses enrobed in herbes finesBy tables of brasSallow-cheeked bankerClothed in funerary styleJostled by rich youth  Dark clouds and sunlightCold wind on Lake GenevaThe wine store is closedI blame 911Our fingernails are too longNo clippers allowedCalm morning with sunIn reformation cityEverything is closedO pungent soft cheeseI ask: Where are your friends?Here, bread and wineWith baguette and brieI am wearing underwearWhen police arrive Rohan Quinby is the photo editor of carte blanche. He lives in Nashville but is currently traveling in Europe. Photos were taken with his iPod.
