The Corner
Years will pass
And the streets may be empty

Yet there will be a glow
Which a memory will show

Perhaps the ultraviolet on a dress
Or the garnish on a cocktail

What else after all should we remember of old days?
When the night was in contempt of all those mornings
And resentful of truth for crawling in and out of the fog

When we had only half of what we needed
but even less of what we wanted

When that dive bar gave us more than we deserved
And we but waning embers of fires dead and dying
Sought some refuge there
