requiem (autumn in tulsa)
it was autumn in tulsa
and springtime in perth
when the wedding bells rang out
from st. joseph’s church
where he lay in the alley
with a cross ’round his neck
like a bottle of mad dog
all broken and spent
no, i didn’t bring flowers
but i witnessed his death
and stood like a coward
to steal his last breath
he said, “the problem, you see
is nearly everyone but me
is a pusillanimous
son of a b-tch
yeah, they’ll look brave and bold
they’ll act cool and cold
but on the sabbath they will leave you
like an ox in a ditch.”
so i turned back into the rain
pulled my collar up close
and forgetting his pain
i headed back home
’cause the sunsets and seasons
are all fictions of this earth:
when it’s autumn in tulsa
it’s spring, springtime in perth
