Frail hinges pivot | |
On a cases door | |
Commemorative | |
Souvenirs from places | |
Containers change | |
With each occasion | |
Cellophane encased | |
Displaying paper | |
Certificate | |
Credit years of service | |
A tool of | |
Central enterprises | |
The early hope | |
For permanence the | |
Words the rings | |
Consistency | |
And social security the | |
Miracles high tragedy | |
A thought mistaken | |
For a memory | |
Clear the dust from | |
Smiles in boxes | |
Cross a patterned floor | |
Recall the voices | |
Local posts they | |
List your friends | |
In order of | |
Disappearance | |
Lawn scattered tins | |
Feed birds the | |
Portion baked for | |
Absent guests | |
Mass edition icon | |
God sent comfort is | |
Your salvation | |
But who grants | |
Absolution for sins | |
That never were committed | |
Tension | |
Makes a tangle | |
Of each thought becomes | |
Inconvenience | |
Sound never penetrate | |
As servile edges | |
Break and faint | |
Dress lenghts | |
Assassinations | |
Fractured family ties | |
Christenings |
