Living under the watchful ticking,
Your "Regulator" clock kept time;
Mercantile calendar days running down.
I never knew you to complain
A day in all your life.
Art Pribnow married you,
Removed you to a little place
West of the Yellowstone River
To farm and set the world in order.
Probably the sun
Checked his schedule
Right over head by seeing laundry
Hanging in straight strung rows
Beside the sharp white buildings,
No stone out of its place.
Only Order
Everywhere, but...
I wonder sometimes.

Living under the watchful ticking,
Your "Regulator" clock kept time;
Mercantile calendar days running down.
I never knew you to complain
A day in all your life.
Art Pribnow married you,
Removed you to a little place
West of the Yellowstone River
To farm and set the world in order.
Probably the sun
Checked his schedule
Right over head by seeing laundry
Hanging in straight strung rows
Beside the sharp white buildings,
No stone out of its place.
Only Order
Everywhere, but...
I wonder sometimes.
