When the evening is spread out against the sky
Like a patient etherized upon a table;
Let us go, through certain half -deserted streets,
The muttering retreats
Of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels
And sawdust restaurants with oyster shells:
Streets that follow like a tedious argument
Of insidious intent
To lead you to an overwhelming question.…
Oh, do not ask, “What is it?”
Let us go and make our visit.
