dear earth father
who art now in heaven a dirt farmer at the hour of my birth in a world i was made to feel wrath rather than protection and love lead me now into the hour of your love for mother and all seven children born of this union in the Great Depression born into ancestral and religious fears now my guardian angel reunited after empty years now with my earth mother the very one you loved so desperately you threatened to throw yourself in front of the train she prepared to board if she did not become your wife ironic some thirty years later another train would end your earthly life this moment finally i know both your love and protection |
