from A Fourth Group of Verse
There had been a boy in his class at school whose name was Kore.
Kore was short, too, but he had the chest of an old sailor and thick, bandy legs. He shouted when he spoke and was always laughing.
Kore moved into the block. With Kore he was not afraid to stand on the stoop after work or go walking anywhere.
Once they went to Coney Island and Kore wanted to go bathing. It was late at night and no one else was in.
They went along the beach until they came to the iron pier the steamboats dock at.
Kore boasted that he would swim around the pier and slid away into the black water.
At last the people were gone. The booths were long darkened.
He waited for Kore at the other side of the pier, watching the empty waves come in.
– Charles Reznikoff (1921)
