FAn-Music
Lucian-
My dad is a box,
A name on its side,
Tucked under the bed,
To hold and to hide,
In magnets stuck,
2 plates turned 3,
Shoes caked in muck,
And crayon imagery.
Charlie-
Easier saying « he’s out at the store »
Cause the thing about groceries?
Is there’s always more.
So just trust the magnets,
Slippers on the floor,
With the air of regrets,
That weren’t there before,
In the photos of faces,
Hung up on the fridge,
As if it replaces,
The truth we abridge.
Charlie-
My dad is a box
A name on its side
Tucked under the bed
To hold and to hide
Both-
Our father’s a memory,
Clinging till it dies,
Faltering fading worn out ink,
Charlie-
Dripping Before our eyes.
