Sounds Like: "As easily as the music falls, the nickels fall into the slots,
the drinks like lonely water-falls
in night descend the separate throats,
and the hands fall on one another
[down] darker darkness under
tablecloths and all descends,
descends, falls,- much as we envision
the helpless earthwards fall of love
descending from the head and eye
down to the hands, and heart, and down.
The music pretends to laugh and weep
while it desceds to drinka nd murder.
The burning box can keep the measure
strict, always, and the down-beat."
