when the short days of winter came, dusk fell before we had
well eaten our dinners when we met in the street the houses
had grown sombre. the space of sky above us was the colour
of ever-changing violet and towards it the lamps of the street
lifted their feeble lanterns the cold air stung us and we played
till our bodies glowed our shouts echoed in the silent street
the career of our play brought us through the dark muddy lanes
behind the houses, where we ran the gauntlet of the rough
tribes from the cottages to the back doors of the dark dripping
gardens where odours arose from the ashpits to the dark
odorous stables where a coachman smoothed and combed the
horse or shook music from the buckled harness
