Atlanta

She lives in a bungalow
She kills me with rosegarden thorns
She waits for me My love is unusual
It’s painted with roses and thorns
with her I’m complete
She lives by the wall
and waits by the door
She walks in the sun
to me Visions of Mexico seduce me It goes to my head so carefully
Memories of candles and incense
And all of these things remember these
She lives by the wall
and waits by the door
She walks in the sun
to me She comforts me when
the candles blow out
the cake has grown mold
but the memories are sweet
The laughter’s all gone
but the memories are mine
The Mexican princess
is out of my life
She lives by the wall
and waits by the door
She walks in the sun
to me
