116 And the monstrous heaven rejoices,

And the earth allows again,

Meetings, greetings, and voices

Of women talking with men.

So we return to our places,

As out on the bridge she rolls;

And the darkness covers our faces,

And the darkness re-enters our souls.

More than a little lonely

Where the lessening tail-lights shine.

No—not combatants—only

Details guarding the line!
