if I'm
asleep
when the
angry shouts come
when first
shots are fired
when the
earth shakes
when the
wave comes over
when comes
the fatal knock on the door
when
Pandora's box looses the whirlwind
when death
is a certain thing like taxes
and sins
are unconfessed
think
twice before you wake me
from our
better world
ReplyDeleteit pans out that way
it happens worse than that
they'll lay your body
right next to mine
and neither of us
with a name on our toe
or even a number
to say how we got there
all that we set free
or about the lies we confessed
and other lies we blessed
