The time was 1938, and so it might have been one hundred years ago— those pale, remote figures under the blackened trees. Cold winds stirred across the birch tops and down the meadows of the old, purple earth of Poland; and the last leaves dropped. It was in the aging Baltic country just before the War, at the north join of the German and the Pole on the historic black waters—in Danzig, a winter land of sticks and hunger, spiked with feudal lords whose hearts were overlaid with the thin elegances of Paris, London, and Berlin, but which still ached with the antique hates and griefs of the cold countries, in literature always called “Mother . . .”

Across the alley the Calliope of Summer rented an old roominghouse room. All through June the metronome of an empty rockingchair creaked through the screen. But in July clownish moonlight fell across the garbage: an eggshell opened one eye, shook the coff ee grounds from a wig of potato peels, and a smile spread across a banana when cowled in shoppingbags the conductor sprung out of the ashcan. Jack-in-the-box! What music! Accordians of cats, tin drums beat and cymbals trashed while mice nibbled at discarded clarinets. And to bent bugles, clothesline zithers, like kangaroos, the ballerinas in long black topcoats danced all night to soft goat bagpipes.
