the rain
the gentle drizzle down
the cheek
the babe
she
loves

i am come
from shadows

i am here
for you

death is a mild reminder
of past faults

alleys of soldiers
veterans abused
by the HOLY orders

we go to college
we are stupid

we come to our senses
and forget "congress"

the rain
the clown dances
the gentle drizzle
the clown sings
