Late Night Musing
Throughout my life
I have listened to the night
as it spread
it's black wings around me
I have known the darkness
and it still speaks
to me when moonlight appears
Walking the shadowed streets
I have heard the rhythms
of the asphalt homeland
Streetlamps cast a ghostly glow
A pedestrian passes by
His footsteps echoing in
the cool autumn air
These images will fade when
the garish sun appears
But for now.....
