Barges on the Hudson
By Babette Deutsch
Going up the river, or down, their tuneless look
Is of men grown poorer who, though ageing, wear

To late November, the north, nightfall, all the
Deprived whom increment of loss...

Are cousin to those whom poverty becomes—
To late November, the north, nightfall, all the
Deprived whom increment of loss...
