What we shall do now
And what we shall do
Later
From song and dream
To nightmare’s and evil
The rain’s over
The words immortal

Boy, I sure do miss living and working in Chicago. Here’s a view of the city from the Evanston campus of Northwestern University. The day had turned bright and sunny where I was standing but it was still rather gloomy 12 miles away in downtown Chicago, with the morning fog still clinging to the buildings.
View from Google maps here.

Beside a stricken field
I expect you
Good woman
But I wonder if you’ll arrive
Iwonder where you live
I long for it to be
In the endless, foolish merriment
Of my heart
