The dark streets are deserted, 
With only a drugstore glowing 
Softly, like a sleeping body; 
With one white, naked bulb 
In the back, that shines 
On suicides and abortions. 
Who lives in these dark houses? 
I am suddenly aware 
I might live here myself. 
The garage man returns 
And puts the change in my hand, 
Counting the singles carefully.
