July 1

the matter of topic
who'd Mary run off with?
they say she's in Stockton
with Sid Bostwick
which is surprising to hear
'cause Sid's right here
welling up in tears
telling Jilly not to fear
things will be better
it doesn't mean forever
things change like the weather
wear my sweater
I hate to add
more sad to the bad
I'm acting like an ass
you don't deserve this lass
lock your doors
then lock them more
creatures from the morgue
come to rob the poor
though the sun beats hard
the city is dark
walking aimlessly through parks
counting the stars

I really like the lines " things will be better, it doesn't mean forever, things change like the weather." It's completely true, things change at a rediculous pace. I also like how you said that even though the sun is shining, that the city is still dark, dark meaning corrupt, tainted etc. That is what you ment, right?
