Wore Dark Blue

    In an iron-blue chamber of that afternoon
    On which we wore things and looked well at
    A slab of business rising behind the stars.

    T’was morning one sole street-lamp still bright-lit,
    Which, with a senile grin, like an old dunce,
    Vied the blue sky, and tried to rival it....
