Deep a.m. six day old coffee
Rationed cigarettes & forbidden dreams
Skipping down rainy midwestern
Streets w broken down poets
Lost behind the times
Behind historic lines
Left forlorn against mom & pop
Storefronts
Serenading un-seeable futures
Feathered like crows
Like heckle and jeckle
Like a life remembered
In old cartoons
