In Lou's Room
find a place
to
waste
time
pour a lighter head
for heavy hearts
leave the world listening
to songs with the bite
of good beer
bad smoke
and better company
a marriage of six
strings and a pack
paul got the prophets' words
alright
except
they're written
not on tenement halls
but scratched
with keys
too sodden to use
on smoke-black walls
