This is to the lost, and our memories of them.
Down is the sunlit site of a mile end road
These creeping oaks that mask a violet sky
Kicking roadside and smelling honesuckle row,
The lawyers and ladies keep passing by
Sweet smell, sweet smell of nostril scent
That’s hanging sweetly on the bow.
My nose is struck with value, heaven sent,
If sweeter since is sickly now.
I land myself between two towering oaks,
The markings laid down on the ground
All between, the centuries blood croaks
In the markered hills without a sound
Cries of little children in the heat of day
Bent, broken and tossed out.
By summer’s end, they’ll all have prayed,
For them to end their season of doubt
Onward I stare for the moon night eyes,
A thousand souls cast pale for night
The youth hath said their last goodbyes,
Ended, they shine forever bright
