lyrics

I walked down there, 2 am, midnight
Old buildings small and business like
Sad as soldiers, hands to their head
And they watch their officers die in their own beds

The sidewalk supports glass and my feet push it back

Then a train toppled, oversees no new track
A fallen tiger on her side, waiting
But not wanting to die

Now to the river I am
An artist of prose
With the foresight of ghosts
Was this what Harlem was like, 2 am, midnight?
When Hughes prayed he would die?
I don't know, for I head back

Greater he than I, that stayed by the river
And thought of his life.
