Another 3:30 in the Morning Poem
I am drunk
and in my underwear.
There is thunder now
and some lightning
a distance away.
The lights flicker
and the music slows.
I think of whip dancers in the village,
of powdered milk
and the Colossus
at Rhodes.
I wonder when the power
will go out,
how much longer
all of this
can go
on.
