The Thinker

Right elbow on left knee
Hmm
Maybe he sees his virtue in a pebble
Caught in the thong of his sandal
Or maybe he found God
In a puddle of rainwater

No

Most likely
He was looking at a young woman
With dark hair
And dark eyes
Twirling beneath an olive tree
Until she bent down to pick a flower
And saw him there
With his head twisted over his shoulder
And smiled
