your mother and father

the letter came today

fields have turned brown. sleep in among coffee shop

you're new in town. what will you do now

to get along?

now that your mother and

father are gone?

gone are the arguments

that sting inside. beauty and status were

never alive. what will you do now

to get along?

now that your mother and

father are gone?

library doors are locked

you wait for day. when they will open it

you will be saved. what will you do now

to get along?

now that your mother and

father are gone?
