Upon the clothes behind the tenement, That hang like ghosts suspended from the lines, Linking each flat, but to each indifferent, Incongruous and strange the moonlight shines.
More Quotes from Claude McKay:
Oh, with our love the night is warm and deep!Claude Mckay
How tired unto death, how tired I was!
Claude Mckay
Adventure-seasoned and storm-buffeted,
I shun all signs of anchorage, because
The zest of life exceeds the bound of laws.
Claude Mckay
Music that every heart could bless,
And thoughts of life serene, divine,
Beyond my power to express,
Crowd round this lifted heart of mine!

Something in me is lost, forever lost,
Some vital thing has gone out of my heart,
And I must walk the way of life a ghost
Among the sons of earth, a thing apart;
For I was born, far from my native clime,
Under the white man's menace, out of time.
Claude Mckay
Love words, mad words, dream words, sweet senseless words,
Melodious like notes of mating birds;
Claude Mckay
