Outside Kiva Han, Craig Street, Oakland.
A Guy approaches a female friend sitting at a table outside and talks with her. After a while, he pulls out his cell phone:
Guy: I’m going to take your picture.
Girl: Why?
Guy: Because you look like Edna St. Vincent Millay.
- We talk of taxes, and I call you friend;
- Well, such you are, — but well enough we know
- How thick about us root, how rankly grow
- Those subtle weeds no man has need to tend,
- That flourish through neglect, and soon must send
- Perfume too sweet upon us and overthrow
- Our steady senses; how such matters go
- We are aware, and how such matters end.
- Yet shall be told no meagre passion here;
- With lovers such as we forevermore
- Isolde drinks the draught, and Guinevere
- Receives the Table’s ruin through her door,
- Francesca, with the loud surf at her ear,
- Lets fall the coloured book upon the floor.
- — Edna St Vincent Millay
