L
after your death the crows came
they descended on our place
with white jackets and stethoscopes
they unravelled you from the wall.
i kept thinking
here she wept and here she sang
after your death i had to sit down
i sat for so long the government changed
they rewrote the constitution and now there was a cure
i kept thinking
here she wept and here she lived
after your death i began telling everyone you were murdered
