When Rain Pours

Found out it's some kind of church
Like everything

Spools of cording stretched to the ends
Some slack will never get pulled taut

Found high on a perch drunk on cold medicine
Finally, and exactly where your friends thought

Besides owning a handgun, how you differ
Going home talking like a negotiator

I will fax that through when I'm ready
The rumbling sound of track through glass

Material there for pilfer or trash compactor
Not even sludge, just a lace teddy and the sound of cars rushing past

A deeper quarry than first imagined
An easy call for an adjustor

Thousands of feet in new pipe
Wood will get replaced, all else, rubble

For every home should have a pageant and sunburnt lustre
Even when we're not our type and use a body double

Drawing in all the odors to remember
Carpet is not as fancy as it once was

The terms elaborate and majestic
Never to be built again with hard labor

Come September, the organ will play as it does
Keeping it interesting and in good favor

We could all stand a little hoe down
Where the tall grass can sway us

Spotting an owl spotting us from a distance
There is no way out of this rigmarole

Ending in lust and cuffs
Our admittance into this party is savage and we react similarly,
political
