Border Line
I used to wonder
About living and dying –
I think the difference lies
Between tears and crying.
I used to wonder
About here and there
I think the difference
Is nowhere.
Langston Hughes
Water-Front Streets
The spring is not so beautiful there –
But dream ships sail away
To where the spring is wondrous rare
And life is gay.
The spring is not so beautiful there –
But lads put out to sea
Who carry beauties in their hearts
And dream, like me.
Langston Hughes
