Two cities

There is a stretch of water, a city on each side
one of them utterly dark, where enemies live.
Lamps are burning in the other.
The well-lit shore hypnotizes the dark shore.
I swim out in a trance
on the glittering dark water.
A steady note of a tuba comes in.
It\'s a friend\'s voice: \"Take up your grave and walk.\"
from The Half-Finished Heaven.
