Light from sunrise, Light from sunset, Light from McDonalds
Quick picking songs and songs and songs
Hearing songs and songs
Bus stops contemplating life
Watching SUVS turn their heads
Always fitter, Always happier
A castle, A cross
A cross in the empty field
Collecting ashes from addicted buildings
Struggling to breathe the refugee trees run west
Crushing the old old houses
Stacks of bricks holding liquor and new movies
Streets turned to ice from one hundred million credit cards
Stacks of bricks holding crosses and children
Gravestones and trees
Fresh paint and pointy hedges
Families inside of ancient vines
Grown from the local botanist
Parking lot too bright to look at
Waving flags of the country
Waving flags of the Brewers
Passing $100 bills with smiles and pressed collars
Kicking pianos
Disposing of them with axes and chainsaws
Organized by stacks of bricks holding crosses
With face clocks everywhere
Everyone is late
Everyone is late
Everyone forgot
Refugee trees take rest
Listening to passing trains like concerts
Found a home
Not for long

ReplyDeletethe radiohead reference especially seemed off-base.
