Among the Leaves |
A pillow lays on cold cement |
A blanket by a broken vent |
She’s there a while |
And then she’s gone |
I’m away for weeks |
Arrive at night |
She hears my steps |
Turns off the light and runs |
No mind at all, more space than I need |
It’s just me among the weeds |
Among the ghosts |
Among the leaves |
We’ve never met but she’s a girl |
Romance paper books |
The floor is covered |
In long blonde curls |
On afternoons I walk the graves |
The rusted cars, the mine shaft caves |
See a girl sadly unkempt |
A child of neglect |
Under moons I pass the tombs |
Cross the highways, smell the fumes |
See a girl frighteningly gaunt |
Somebody didn’t want |
How do I tell her I don’t care |
If she sleeps downstairs? |
I see her on my errand runs |
Looking nervous like a young Mia Farrow |
Walk along the gas stops |
Window browsing pawn shops |
Guns, bows and arrows |
Up on past the Halfway house |
Past the signs Eighty South |
Buttercup and Carrows |
Drinking Wild Irish Rose |
At the dead end of the road |
Sleeping with the sparrows |
When evening comes I play guitar |
For the planets and the stars |
I leave the porch light on Like I do when I’m gone |
Winter, spring, summer, fall |
Basement’s yours, have a ball |
There’s always room for you there |
Really baby I don’t care |
