Pancakes On Plastic plates
Dancing in the kitchen
Sad cowboy music and coffee brewing
You can’t tell if you’re dreaming
you’ve accepted it
the women you see swaying
Will become your salvation
or damnation
You don’t care
bevause eithier way you’ve had your taste of heaven
in this little house in the hills
dancing in the kitchen
syaying up late
flipping pancakes onto plastic plates.
have your prayers been answered
You take it all in
before the music stops again

This reminds me of growing up in the holler and my mother cooking up potato cakes while singing to The Chicks. Thank you for the memory!
I can taste syrup and sweet abandon in these lines.
