Unsung Evening Songs

Evening Songs we hardly     sang, Are no longer with me     now. The rhythms have lost      their way among the The Silences I Sleep With,      and the subtle melody      has sold its distinction      for a pocket full of memories. This I remember       as we lay there        in the wet sweat of our slavery; There was an Evening Song       left unsung,      tapping outside     our rain-soaked window.
