downhaul – park lyrics
nearly fell asleep in the park
someone speaking portuguese is
half-explaining god to me
i catch about every third word
we move our chairs as the shade shifts
and with the eight words i can manage
i excuse myself in spanish
and he tries not to laugh
watched a girl grow up in the park
at her family’s food cart every
afternoon and weekend it was warm
she worked in total silence
and every time i tried to talk to her
she seemed to wince with every word
so i soon gave that up
hand-me-down shirt
kid sister in her lap
she’s attentive
yet detached
watching other families leave the park
as she cleans up
and downtown turns dark
finally her father rounds the corner
in his pickup truck
he can barely help her load the cart
with his good arm
before they’re gone
before they’re gone
and she waits on the night to end
we both wait on the night to end
each night has to end
each night has to end
and it does
