Who could sleep?
- Who could sleep? His light was
- still on. Who could rest? The
- radio played a jazz whose rhythm
- repeated with no variation. Who
- could blame him? The house
- was empty, the night
- was empty and it did not matter
- that his room was full of books
- and records. It did not matter.
- His eyes would not close. He could
- not admit, if it were true,
- what he was waiting for.
