kentucky
candlewax and colder months
can’t go back to where i’m from
take me with you into sleep
sinners packed in like sardines
birtbday boys in brand new jeans
lord i pray my soul to keep
don’t forget the golden rule
maybe once in middle school
if you run you won’t get far
when you touch me god is there
hallelujahs in your hair
you can show me who you are

Well written, tight tercets, and an interesting view of the internal workings of the Bluegrass State.
