Joseph Cornell

Why do humming birds just hum their loneliness to me?
151 or 145 or twice times 123

If we're on Delancey St. at night
In the after-train-ride quiet
Barking dogs by high-gate pond
Something's here but something's gone

What a night for talking, darling
What a night for dreams
151 or 145 or twice times 123

This is all I really know tonight
Something's wrong but something's right
Barking dogs by high-gate pond
Something's here but something's gone
