Amidst brick buildings
They wrote me their name
In Chinese characters
With their compelling smile
Lured me to the gateway
Once a snow tractor
Broke off a piece of this wall
This place has its own scent
Of a place that is rocky and dim
The iron gate's oiled hinges
When you move suddenly
From the sunlight to dark
It takes a while to adjust to seeing
At the blind moment they kissed me
Surely you can't know a person
Who tells nothing about themself
On Sunday it's festive
To walk the quiet streets
To be on your way to a meeting
People are pulling leashes
Serious dogs are being walked
