By Night

By night
She is not alone
Alone to ply her pleasure trade
A trade that always promises the world
A world where that she can become part of
The Part of a world consisting of daylight and goodness
A goodness that spreads kindness and softness
A softness that she can sleep on
A sleep that has no dreams
No nightmares
By night

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
