Son,
I’ve seen it all.
Cigarette stalls
and bombed Barbie dolls
orange shoes with
orange laces
I’ve seen it all
At one time it was deadly
To look someone in the eyes
Still is
in some places
They let joy marry tragedy.
O yes I’ve seen it
All at
once
I started taking smiles seriously
My life began.
So please, my love, I’m going to ask
you once more to move the camera from in front of
your face
I want to be able to say
That I’ve seen it all.
