Will you deliver your warm earthy flavors to me In the rustic urban setting of Café Noir’s low ceilinged Hideaway on Upper Market Street where we first met By chance after sundown on a Thursday in November? I came late with no reservations I stole you I had no choice It was you or that Poulet Basquaise Many have had you I know But for me it was my very first time. Will I climb the narrow steep stairs on Romolo Place Some Tuesday to find you being passed around by Rough young workers’ hands down some long Boardinghouse table as the daily special braised With Madeira for any displaced West Coast Basque? Our former meeting place has changed from Crowded cellar bistro to bistrotheque to a small Korean bar. I’ve moved east now and dine on Lake Superior whitefish While you my dear are Basquing in your new-found glory As contemporary taste trendsetters Abduct you for their very own.Jack Fritscher, Ph.D., All Rights Reserved HOW TO LEGALLY QUOTE FROM THIS WORK 202Jim Stewart 766 Clementina Street 2008: photo by Jim StewartNext >
