Twelve

They all rise from their seats
Repeat twelve steps to find sanctity
Stale coffee, some pamphlets and coloring books for kids
While you weep into me
In their choruses they loved God
He played us songs that he wrote for her
On guitars that her son would soon destroy
Discerning, I watched all the sad discord
Until he left her and her son moved away
I promise to sing with you when I can be saved, too
