Stained Glass Slipper

Coroner as October sees the leaves turn colors
You're so much older than when we first
Met each other down in southern Cali
And the pounding pattern drum of pumping blood was sounding
Even though the subject was too young

All I need is one night
To see if it's right
You can cut me like streetlights with the sunrise
All I ask is one night
To know if it's right
We can scatter like ashes when the cock cries

On an Autumn morning like this
I sit and watch the shadows of birds on bricks
Think words to warm the marrow of this feral woman pharaoh
Turning 25 on the 26th

All I need is one night
To see if it's right
We can scatter like ashes when the cock cries
All I ask is one night
To know if it's right
You can cut me like streetlights with the sunrise
