Barcelona begins in your temples,
which are full of time
but that's just a place,
just a bit of pressure.  Start feeling
objective, Wisconsin or New York,
there, heat
and caffeine, not pain,
exactly.  Minnesota there
is just a buzz of median highway strip.
You can drive all the way to Montana,
westward and relief!  You'd hoped
for Oregon some day idle
as help because there are oceans
and there is not some day, without time
there is only Barcelona.  Still.
Things move through your physical
brain and you are sheltered,
stuck in a cafe from rain fragrant, you
are warm and fed but you weren't
being.  Just in the West,
alone.
