Song lyrics
“In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present.”
“Inspiration, move me brightly, light the song with sense and color, hold away despair”
"Terrapin Station"
Song lyrics, (1977)
“Sometimes at night, I turn on the light so as not to see.”
A veces, de noche, enciendo una luz, para no ver.
Voces (1943)
Leaving the City

Context: In December of that year,
the word came down that she was here.
The days grew shorter.
I was sure, if she came 'round,
I’d hold my ground. I'd endure.
But they'd alluded to a change
that came to pass,
and Spring, deranged,
weeping grass and sleepless,
broke herself upon my windowglass.
And I could barely breathe, for seeing
all the splintered light that leaked her fissures,
fleeing, launched in flight:
unstaunched daylight, brightly bleeding,
bleached the night with dawn, deleting,
in that high sun,
after our good run,
when the spirit bends
beneath knowing it must end.
“I'm walking on the sky I see the moon I see the light”
