did you ever watch orange funeral flags
free themselves in the breeze
til the soot scented man
put them back in his drawer
a lucky man
with a golden key
to lock all the open doors

may day

a
yellow
injection
makes
new
babies
with
blue

mother noose

little girl sue, yer dress is torn. there's blood in the meadow, no seed fer corn. where is yer daddy? why do you weep? "he's settlin' scores whare my kisses won't reach." cain't you holler fer him? "no, i've tried. and his bullets scare me. what if he dies?"
