Fixed
FIXED
The gleam of wet cobblestones
Fixes the pictures of childhood
And the familiar twist in the fence
Of rusting iron holds my soul.
The slow dawn of this black industrial town,
The rapid darkening in its sundown,
Gathering in the gutter the black rain
Cannot find a way to drain:
God knows how I hate it,
God knows how I loved it.
