from Nocturne
Do squamous and squiggling fish,
down in their fireless houses,
notice nightfall? Perhaps not.
But any grounded goer,
and all to whom feathers grant
the sky's unbounded freedom,
alter their doings at dusk,
each obsequious to its
curiosity of kind.
The commons mild their movements
and mew all their senses, but
there are odd balls, for instance,
the owl and the pussy-cat,
as soon as day has thestered,
increase their thinking and jaunt
to kill or to engender.
No couple of our kindred
obey the same body-clock:
for most the law is to shut
their minds up before midnight,
but someone in the small hours,
for the money or love, is
always awake and at work.
Here young radicals plotting
to blow up a building, there
a frowning poet rifling
his memory's printer's-pie
to form some placent sentence,
and overhead wanderers
whirling hither and thither
in bellies of overbig
mosquitoes made of metal.
– W.H. Auden (1972)
