Carmen 7

He was almost sorry to have kissed her so early in the night

(feeling as if he had brushed his teeth before

remembering that he had not yet finished his drink)

because the conversation had been very pleasant,

and if this were no good they would surely

not return to laughter, but the wine had been good

and the kiss was good

and afterward the wine was still very good

and they did not throw the bottle out in the morning.
