lyrics

As he was cleaning out his desk, he found a sympathy card sent by a friend after his father died. The friend had also passed. He threw the card in one of several boxes, packed them into his car, and drove home. Later, he took the card and folded and refolded it until he could slide it into a brown liquor bottle with a broken neck that had been thrown into his yard from a passing car. He slipped through a gap in the back fence made by a tree ripped from the ground by an October storm and wound down a slim path through the scrub. He reached a small clearing, knelt, and half buried the bottle among the other ephemera he had arranged in the dirt. He sat down cross-legged, lit a joint, and took a deep hit. His mind drifted from one memory to another as he scanned his assortment: a well-used coffee cup with Bowie’s Low image; a trio of cracked plastic skulls; a noseless Jesus statuette left behind when some neighbors moved, one gray granite hand on its heart, the other pointing heavenward; a tibia-looking bone, from what he didn’t know; some action figures his sons had long forgotten… And in his head he began cycling through music by his dead heroes, the sounds that had made him want to live lives like theirs and to pursue a golden affirmation that could never be his. And in the moment he was in right then, sitting stoned in the woods in his tiny world at dusk, he knew it was time to look truth in the face and salvage what he could of the days he had left.
