Grass

Posted: Nov 2, 2007 Fri 07:02 am     Views: 339   

I had an opening line from this really catchy tune
and was doing some tired ol' wordplay around it. Jameson helped like always...


Grass
------
cancel on me,
like that one dollar bill
circling on front-porch floor-
burnt cigarette-stub breathing
under your shoe
grass whispering chords:
from years you made
this banjo play;
thumbs curled at
a season shadowing this house
your house, tree, hands,
fingers picking a note
"oh there was never a good time"
if not, then with a different key
let the flames out, unlock the door
this night will drink them all
