Wild Ducks
By Lola Ridge

That was a great night we spied upon
See-sawing home,
Singing a hot sweet song to the super-stars
Shuffling off behind the smoke-haze …
Fog-horns sentimentalizing on the river …
Lights dwindling to shining slits
In the wet asphalt …
Purring lights …red and green and golden-whiskered …
Digging daintily pointed claws in the soft mud …
…But you did not know …
As the trains made golden augers
Boring in the darkness …
How my heart kept racing out along the rails,
As a spider runs along a thread
And hauls him in again
To some drawing point …
You did not know
How wild ducks' wings
Itch at dawn …
How at dawn the necks of wild ducks
Arch to the sun
And new-mown air
Trickles sweet in their gullets.
