James Weldon Johnson (Джеймс Уэлдон Джонсон)
Life
Out of the infinite sea of eternity
To climb, and for an instant stand
Upon an island speck of time.
From the impassible peace of the darkness
To wake, and blink at the garish light
Through one short hour of fretfulness.

- The Color Sergeant
- Mother Night
- Down by the Carib Sea. 4. The Lottery Girl
- The Temptress
- The Ghost of Deacon Brown
