This will not be my house,
I warned the ghost Doctor;
I want no hold here
after everyone ends up dead,
I’ll end up in Queens
where the work takes me.
We were all helpless
that awful, terrible day;
On the monitors
I saw smoke everywhere
around the destruction,
a gaping hole
where the Windows
of the World held all time
together, where
all civilization came to gather,
The news was our only link
to the whole madness;
we were helpless
out in the prairies.
Today is another boring day
at the in-laws;
I want to sleep & regroup
when the music stops,
I want to hear my own heart beating
while the sky is still clear.
