What kind of hole
are you going to leave
when you’re gone?
***
Will the world be a better place
without you here?
***
What kind of hole
are you gonna leave
when you’re gone?
***
Size of a redwood tree,
or a little ole weed?
***
And when the talkings
through
and they bury you
(Or, whatever it is they’re gonna do)
Will anybody be
crying over you?
***
And when they bag
up your clothes,
and bring them to
the Goodwill store,
will anybody be proud
to wear your shoes?
***
What kind of cloud’s gonna be
hanging over you when you die,
full of rain or cotton in the sky?
