Penelope
Can't get past the news,
when you danced away,
why no one sang the blues,
steepled by your going,
angels have no shame,
all their value gone,
I haven't got a clue,
at least in heaven's name,
what never is what's due,
everything I call home,
is somehow laid to waste,
the kids watched you go,
sing me a successful tune,
put gold around my cage,
nothing else will do,
I hate to be alone,
won't see anyone anyway,
caution rings my bones,
truth's a bitter fruit,
howls like a railway train,
we'll dispense with you,
struggle to remain.
