Walking the city streets, the early morning
Damp and foggy with the cold of the night

Translucent
The early morning fog and haze
Make the far off mountains
Seem as if translucent

Midnight
It had rained earlier
As I stood in the back yard.
Home from work shift work - late.
Smoking, thinking about Marx.
Reflected light from the full moon
Sparkled the damped edges of leaves
