His Angel
The women were all so
lovely
in their t-shirts and skirts;
the children chased pigeons
around the town square
with no shoes
and Johnny sat on the
corner and sang his blues
a jumbled mess of cigarettes and booze;
nothing was in question;
all the people thought they
were going to Heaven,
and Johnny sat on the
corner and sang his blues
a jumbled mess of cigarettes and booze.
