| Night of Long Shadows |
| by Luis Cuauhtemoc Berriozabal |
| The sky wept like a baby
The earth swelled up. The moon stood witness. The wet street glistened. Crossing the road a grotesque Man played chicken With the beasts on wheels In the rain soaked street. The cold, wet flowers and trees Offered their gift, A fragrance only The rain could awaken, To this night of Long shadows. |
