Evil

Sad reminders of
What seems years ago
Warm southern sun shines through
Station wagon windows
Like solar energy
And when in the night
Your brother turned to me and said,
"God, do you look evil in the dark"
That made me feel good
Sad reminders of
Midwest winter snow
Cold catholic church
Heaven in stained glass windows
Like rock candy
And when on sunday
Their daughter turned at me and said,
"Mom and dad, is it a boy or a girl"
"Mom and dad, is it a he or a she"
That made me feel good
