Night Light

Today
the night walk
I come to see
no outlet
but
the same night lightson the streets
low-income party people
exploited women
well-wishers
and
sympathizers

everyday
a Deadman Crescent Moon

Some domestic
others
international
nowadays
indoor
areas that become dark
God
Guts
mostly progressive
decorative
Yes
All-American, not so much
