All he remembered
Black space
Safe and absent

All the families, schools, haircuts
Names, places dark and scary

“Who are you again?” they ask
And dislike my riddle

Take a look in the mirror and lay me down
You’re gonna remember
Sure as shit

Like my brother laying far-off
Full of bullets
will tell his story too

Will rise any minute, along with
Randy and Beau

And give you my reason for living
