closed ones hide the crime,
a monkey and a pail of hope
or a church without a steeple,
which one would you choose?
peckerwood Becker sees only
what he wants to see, avoiding
avoiding the rest as if it were
the Spanish flu... the clinics
have fired all the doctors- the
town lives for nothing anymore;
sopranos sing base in the choir
of jubilee as priests and nuns
dance freely in the old streets,
time was but is no more
we used to wonder as well
little sister got married early,
sending her children back to
the village to raise - parents
were shor for human trafficking;
just when we think we know,
life changes and all we have to
hold onto are a few memories.
