Night Music

More often, recently,
You’ve noticed nocturnal
Sounds clinging to music,

And find yourself saying,
Such and such a track sounds
Like music from small hours—

Inherently late-night
Music. You could conjure
With a sound like that, if

The world felt young enough
And your thoughts old enough
To switch places at night,

So that you held magic,
And the world did as bid.
