“The Loving of the Seventh Son”
May 29th, 2018
Sold like the 6th son I was
Sold while heaven was in bed with the 7th one
Was it done
Or were the wild nights just cut right by some sister’s young
That’s where it’s buried
Some look to the lone prairie but truly it’s left alone with the Holy Mary
Still she can dance
Just now not partnered with this martyred prince
Just now not chartered towards some coastal trance
Just now… It’s not just
Not just a change
Not just a cold vein
More like a simple saying expressed then left roomy and barren
Trees do this
Past Spring they bloom and consume
Only to drop their loved pieces into some urban broom
Sweeping up the green that brought that peaceful scene
Autumn can be felt early this May
