BLOWN IN (E A D G B E)

Blown in overnight.

I can feel the change.

Can you?

I slept in again.

A small hand woke me up.

I was glad it did.

(And we held each other close.)

And I have never seen something so real, something so simple.

We sang an old song but it sounded new.

I forgot I knew.

They wait patiently.

Unexpectedly we fall.

If I can do this right,

I can go to sleep at a reasonable hour and know I’ve done the best I can.

They never knew they were destroying what they tried so hard to protect.

They still don’t.
