Here Lies Eleanor

Listen to poem:
She is one of many, dear Eleanor secluded in her secular sepulcher, One of the lonely plenty, a regular within the anonymous atoms nebular… Dreamed of rice, at her wedding with her sorrows spreading, She paid the price, with tears shedding and one pillow bedding… Of her loneliness, the nights in waiting never participating, Perhaps erroneous, her heart pulsating and will abating… All her lonely people, avoiding the sun hurting no one, Brings them to the steeple, with prayers none trying to outrun... Father McKenzie, could not help Eleanor a social predator, In his frenzy, using sermons as to metaphor a false presenter. Rest in peace Eleanor Rigby... Aug.07.2019 Eleanor Rigby Who was she Sponsored by: Jerry T Curtis Background music by Jake Shimabukuro Eleanor Rigby (HiSessions.com Acoustic Live!) With a female virtual voice N/A for contest
