one day in the life
[ ]
the view from the window
[it had changed but it didn’t matter]
[neverending can be good]
inside the world was moving on without end
[and there are more of them]
out in the world there were good men hanging in a row
[they looked electric
salut
to that!]
I walked by a couple not dancing but nonetheless
but in the evenings it was the ladies from home that entertained
[mostly men from elsewhere]
one day i saw many thin
ngs but i didn’t see you!
i saw four women cry outside a store
[i stopped to see what had happened as if that would make things any better]
at the taqueria i caught a glimpse of the beautiful life
[unexpectedly!]
i heard stories of crimes from faraway
[they were from my neighborhood but seemed unreal]
i couldn’t believe it - it w
was such an ordinary day!
but the day you said it to my face my head was empty and my body was full
