Rhyme Scheme: ABCDCECCFGHIJKLMNIn the south sleeping against | A |
the drugstore growling under | B |
the trucks and stoves stumbling | C |
through and over the cluttered eyes | D |
of early mysterious night Frowning | C |
drunk waving moving a hand or lash | E |
Dancing kneeling reaching out letting | C |
a hand rest in shadows Squatting | C |
to drink or pee Stretching to climb | F |
pulling themselves onto horses near | G |
where there was sea the old songs | H |
lead you to believe Riding out | I |
from this town to another where | J |
it is also black Down a road | K |
where people are asleep Towards | L |
the moon or the shadows of houses | M |
Towards the songs' pretended sea | N |
