    August arrived bringing the migrants

    Night Ride
     
    Along the black
    leather strap
    of the night
    deserted road
     
    swiftly rolls
    the freighted bus
    Huddled together
    two lovers doze
     
    their hands linkt
    across their laps
    their bodies loosely
    interlockt
     
    their heads resting
    two heavy fruits
    on the plaited
    basket of their limbs
     
    Slowly the bus
    slides into the light
    Here are hills
    detached from dark
     
    the road, uncoils
    a white ribbon
    the lovers with
    the hills unfold
     
    wake cold
    to face the fate
    of those who love
    despite the world.
     
    - Herbert Read
