French Revolution Funk

French Revolution Funk

Over the hill is where they are man
Down by the grass which stuck to their boots as they dug in
A few of them didn't even make it
If you listen closely you can hear Lady Crow singin' em to sleep
Sounds like she's loosing her voice

Remember the tower?
It ain't there no more....
....a pebble hit it...
...brought the whole thing down
...*boom*....

Thought I might have been able to swing by it
Y'know...play some tunes....
Guess there ain't room for that now'days
Since the band broke up after they breeched the walll
Makes my stomach turn...
Knowing the crowd you play for isn't laughing with you anymore

Great exclamation point at the end of this thing. Awesome work all around though.

You visit upon my eyes images and sounds I am not sure I want to see or hear, but you have salted my curiosity. Your poem transforms the funk into a morsel for the imagination.
