Farewell MAG
Umbilical cord stretched across miles.
Hand trembles for scissors. Untouchable.
Family wounds uncared for by first aided smiles.
Dirt encases you like newly laid tiles;
“Gone” written upon the casket is your label.
Umbilical cord stretched across miles.
All the family tree is left with: blood-filled vials.
Videos not even on cable.
Family wounds uncared for by first aided smiles.
Barrels of lies float in wake of aisles.
Porcelain bathtub; rocking girl unstable.
Umbilical cord stretched across miles.
Grief tuned into one station. Unmovable party dials.
No celebration with pictures on tables.
Family wounds uncared for by first aided smiles.
All affairs simply put into files.
Memories. Please. Become forgotten fables.
Umbilical cord stretched across miles.
Family wounds uncared for by first aided smiles
