Day 921: Night Walk

 
'Nighthawks' by Edward Hopper
 
 
 
Night Walk - Franz Wright
 
The all-night convenience store’s empty
and no one is behind the counter.
You open and shut the glass door a few times
causing a bell to go off,
but no one appears. You only came
to buy a pack of cigarettes, maybe
a copy of yesterday’s newspaper —
finally you take one and leave
thirty-five cents in its place.
It is freezing, but it is a good thing
to step outside again:
you can feel less alone in the night,
with lights on here and there
between the dark buildings and trees.
Your own among them, somewhere.
There must be thousands of people
in this city who are dying
to welcome you into their small bolted rooms,
to sit you down and tell you
what has happened to their lives.
And the night smells like snow.
Walking home for a moment
you almost believe you could start again.
And an intense love rushes to your heart,
and hope. It’s unendurable, unendurable.

  2. Beautiful. I am the walking, the snow, the chill, the hope in it's excruciating uncertainty. How undyingly amazing is the breath of resonance.

  4. Hey guys I’m 23 I had several late payments because I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I was in the hospital for a while. Then I lost my job, started using my credit cards to pay bills and maxed them. I had never missed a payment before I had any of my issues. I had collection accounts but they don’t show on my 3B report. I had 20 accounts which are my negatives. All this brought down my credit score to Equifax 496, TransUnion 518 and Experian 490. The best option I got was to get myself a credit repair company which my local attorney recommended to me as a PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST to me. I didn’t hesitate to contact them and I’m glad I did because PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST turned in my credit score Equifax 809, TransUnion 811 and Experian 803. They wiped all the negative items from my credit report. PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST also assisted my parents to fix their credit report. Quickly use their email to reach them: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM
