Emerald
Pack of kids blast by
On quads and dirt bikes
Rachel’s sedated
I’m disassociating
Kenzo has cancer
They used to smelt lead here
Trapped in this sprawling dream
Glow, Emerald City

Had choices ’til I chose
Scorpios don’t have souls
(But we can take them)
Love watching you watch the sky flood the highway
(At the horizon)
County fair
Woodwind band
Never let go of my hand
(I’ll have to sometime)

Let’s leave it for a while
Hope our hearts halt softly
It’s all been a gift
And the crescent sun shadows
In the solar eclipse
It’s two hours to Cape May
Or the Pine Barrens
Always crossing the river
To see all our friends
(Doesn’t make sense)
I think we’d best get back West
Seemed we were happy
Left all our memories
Left our reflections there
Way up on B street
