    Another one o’ them new worlds. No beer, no women, no pool parlors, nothing. Nothing to do but throw rocks at tin cans. And we gotta bring our own tin cans.

    Night is a curious child, wandering
    Between earth and sky, creeping
    In windows and doors, daubing
    The entire neighborhood
    With purple paint.
    —Frank Marshall Davis (b. 1905)
