in the shrubs

those who make mention of their old worn lies
have no good reason to complain that now
we take more umbrage than they would allow

clouds form and hide the blue and sacred skies
shading the anger upon each hard brow
those who make mention of their old worn lies

adjust their collars straighten their new ties
have many deeds today to disavow
but no good causes left here to endow
those who make mention of their old worn lies
