Yesterday is gone and so is she,
leaving apparitions in the air...
I wait in the park at
the spot where we used to meet...
The only reason
that I can come up with...
America, freedom in a cage,
feel it dying in fear and rage...
Caught in cobwebs of the past
consuming heart, mind, and vision...
Each day my shadow
thinner and less dark where it falls...
I sit and wait
as the hours pass...
Trampled in the dirt
a maroon stained ring...
It's hard to put a shirt on
with a knife in my back...
The night air saturated with haunting music
aboriginal chants pull down the weeping moon...
Once i had a deep, magical,
love affair...
Underneath the summer spice sun,
beneath cocrete glacier clouds...
