A Crumbling Cemetery (1-7-89)A Poem by Secret Life of MeDress me in red and black, Play the cards from a curious stack, Three black bird Wait patiently for your words To surrender home. The darkness falls Like the crack of a whip Where a body rolls out Of a burned out ship. Night train, carry me To a small town and bury me With my lovers and brothers In a crumbling cemetery. And when the full moon rises, The earth is inviting surprises From the grave where they've buried me In a crumbling cemetery. © 2008 Secret Life of MeAuthor's Note
