Realized Thirty Years Late

When my father dies i'll be in Texas far away from the cold welding my soul back together When my father dies a thousand birds come to circle his soul swooping and plucking at eyes decayed of love Will the birds make a nest of his mistakes? with a tiny child who slumbers life away in twisted memory branches I do not wish to sleep
