The Crow Bar
"The Crow Bar"
she said,
here I bury my dead,
you can hear them sleeping
somnulent forget-me-nots,
snoring blithely unaware,
in neat rows between
the thick,
ink injected lines,
their soiled lives
ploughed and
turned over

To the right, sparkling ocean, and ahead the butterflies!

Because His love restores,
His grace, in a moment,
Brings more joy than a heart,
