Midnight

let us speak, you and I
you,
above me
nightcap

 upon your
head
poking out
from under

 the window
ajar
eyes shining on
a moonless night

 I, across
with my lantern
and winter coat
arm aloft

 speaking
as I stamp
my feet
to keep warm

 the sound
drowning out
the steady
gait of

 the horses
pulling a coal
wagon
down the street
