A Doorway on Boylston Street


Does anyone know if this is a real poem? It was very nice.

It is real in that we do indeed hear it in the film. However it was not published before this movie came to be.

He's taking the knife out of the Cheese!
Do you think he wants some cheese?

There’s a certain doorway on Boylston street
that I passed by on foot
Suited and shod
one of many each Tuesday
Toward lunch with a certain woman
regarded each Tuesday
by the perfect turning gaze
of a white Persian
regarding me
love-bound
sped by desire
and returning to the certainty of his fur.
