Men of the Night
Café Concert
Edouard Manet, 1847
Walters Art Museum, Baltimore
Men of the night
don’t like the light
always readying for a fight
at the merest slight.
Women of the day
want to show them the way
but how and when
and why?
Children of our time
need another rhyme
if they are to surmount
our pasts.
