Remembering Jane

Remembering Jane

“Oh Lord, Won’t You 
Buy Me A Color TV.”

A Genius In Spirit,
A Saturated Soul.
All The Standard Methods
Served To Aid Her In
Forming A Beautiful
PEARL.

Her And Her Bigger
Brothers Had All The
TV They Needed…
That Wasn’t What
She Really Asked For,
I Guess…

Nobody Called Her
Jane…
Sweet Jane.
All Her Friends
We’re Finally
“Driven Away.”

There Is So Much
Empty Space Left
To Somehow
Try And Fill In:

My Ultra Sad
 Sweet-Heart 
Renamed To
Sweet Jane…

Abruptly Ends.
