Example text

I think a program Of therapeutic attention In a modern hospital The right thing, precisely. Streetcar Inspector. There are smarter men than I am in this room. You don't believe Orestes Brown, I see. Now I don't follow what he did, but still Believe that if he says he saw those things, He saw them. He is an honest man. He told me about the coin — and asked to keep it. Put in a quarter of his own, instead. I had to report Orestes Brown for leaving Company property, that awful night. I checked all that.

And winter sweeps the undefended earth. C49 FROM A CHIMNEY CORNER An old room big with firelight holds the boy Alone, till grandmother conies, remembering. By the clock's tick, as grandfather looks down From an oval frame, she draws him back. The town Rises in mind, the house on the Lewisburg road, Where girl-grandmother lived, by battles made wise. The voice murmurs, with the soft twilight knitting Till night gathers deeper on these two sitting Touched with old sorrow to unseal his eyes. He sees a dank morning near Christmas, sixty-four, With early mists trailing on window and door Shut and barred tight until there comes a sound Of slushing feet outside.

He lived In the hill country where the bluegrass turns To upland fallows and tobacco barns, A land of no strangers. Orestes Brown had known Man, woman, child, both white and black, and called Folks by their first names from the Cumberland on C32 To his own hearthside. But all that was before The family trouble that besets our race Drove him to wander through a kinless world Till he became a function and a number — Motorman Seventeen, on the company rolls — For whom, by singular principles of bondage, Man, woman, child, both white and black, were turned To strangers all, who dropped their seven cents Into the cash-box, so becoming fares, Then sat or stood, nameless, till they got off.
