I’ve been to Albania,
Just barely.

A boy with a gun
At the border.

(A soldier put there
To keep order.)

Hailed our bus on
And quizzically frowned

As I jumped down and crossed the ground
Momentarily,

Not to kiss, but to toe
And rebound.

I can now claim I’ve been there,
Quite fairly.
Albanian Border, 1978
