it’s not enough just to listen
I want to be there too
moments in time
forever lost
no song can convey
what she actually ate
after recording
Gimmie a Pigfoot (and A Bottle Of Beer)
who reaped the benefit
of that cinnamon voice?
late at night
the microphone gone to sleep
and if she imagined at that moment
of retiring forever
who might still be listening
after all these years
