When the morning comes
“When all the world came back
And the light crept up between the shutters
And you you heard the sparrows in the gutters,
You has such a vision of the street
As the street hardly understands …”
(T.S. Eliot in Preludes)

Wild Light
“When the lamp is shattered
The light in the dust lies dead–
When the cloud is scattered
The rainbow’s glory is shed.
When the lute is broken,
Sweet tones are remembered not …”
(P.B. Shelly in When the lamp …)

The lamp is low
“Dream beside me in the midnight glow
The lamp is low
Dream and watch the shadows come and go
The lamp is low
While you linger in my arms …”
(T. Dorsey in The lamp is low)

Where has the pedestrian gone?
“But as some folks ain’t got no road at all
They gotta stand in the same old place
Hey, hey, so I guess I’m doin’ fine”
(Bob Dylan in Guess’ I’m doing fine)
