Mamma Cried by Walter L. Jones



I'd cry myself to sleep at night
Fox hole and struggle to stay alive
Woke by broom stick
Under my bed I dive sireens wailing
Echo I am alive

You know
I have
And then again
I have held the wonder of life
Angel on my mind
See the earth swallow
And the burp
Leaves me in
As I push
Just wild cry
She is the style
I write
Into the willing
As I tip starlight
She finds the keys
We sing in tune
Room bounces
Sand and dust
Reflections on moonlight
Streams of neon
She says you know I have
Then again I learned from the best
More than an intern
Hemingway bottle
And Cuban romance
Journalists they say
Broke and drunk
My wife looks at us and just shakes her head
What a pair for sore eyes
