Still Life (or A Lament for 2016) Here at flower fall Where the petal lies The sun can shine and the birds can sing But I cannot be happy today There where books are bound There where dance is held And cannot be happy today The market road is high and hard And there he waits to mark his card The thunder cracks, a blade reveals A moment in a still life Now that reason rests grace cannot remain boors and cheats surround us now I cannot be happy today The brand new land the mob has won Cannot survive the being done Fools and liars lead us now Our glory is behind us © copyright me 2016 |
