“See the old man on the bridge. He’s hauling up a sagging net.
It’s full of eels twisting through the eye sockets of a horse’s head
And this fiend has no family, so he will outlive you and me.
In the hospital you talked about thumbing down
that truck ride or the first time.
And the false friend kept his back turned.
That’s when you learned, the fierceness of man.
Again, again, again.
How long it took to reach the Sister Cities.
And then somehow make it back,
just to tell me, ‘Yeah, I guess I’m still pretty mad'”
