Song For Cate


She crawls
She walks
She cries
She talks
She pulls
She grabs
She fails
She tries
She bites
She kisses
She lies
She begs forgiveness

She's the Hoover Dam
She's the Amazon

She's that rainbow
You
Are
Standing
On

She's a sawed off shotgun
In
A
Pinch
She'll wear you down

She's a little fish
You
Will
Never
Catch

She's a Jackson Pollock painting
She's my favorite song

She's a mouse
She's a cat
She's a goose
She's a swan

She's an old gray barn
In
A
Midwestern
Town

Fading
Gracefully

Fifty
Years
Ago

One
Hundred
Years
From
Now
