As the sun sets down on Jodie Lane
Only the boulevard is left to blame
I am only a witness, my oath in vain
A Highway runs overhead
The overpass is painted red
Gasoline and oil,
The cars have been fed
The parking lot deserted of trees
Shadows grow thin and weak
The rubber burns
The tire squeals
The lamp post flutters,
Deadening, shining dim
Intertwined electrical wiring
The cables from within
Promises of an oasis, free of pain
A poetic justice-
Decades of mourning on Jodie Lane
Standing on guard, soldiers with guns
A crime scène, officially
The yellow tape surrounds all the fun
“Caution, do not enter”, screaming all around
Children are lost,
Then quickly found, dead,
I read in newspaper in town
This is there last season, this is the last rain
That was their daughter down on Jodie Lane!
