Every so often he vows to start a better life. <br />But when night comes with her own counsels, <br />with her compromises, and with her promises; <br />but when night comes with her own power <br />of the body that wants and demands, he returns, <br />forlorn, to the same fatal joy.<br /><br />Constantine P.
