Where is My Lord,
He is in my family
He skulks around the back
When you need sombody
Never showing his card - he holds the Ace
They blew up the mattress
And I cried to the woman/the heavens
And I CRIED for my mother
And I cried for my father
And the sands beneath my shoes were shifting
Someone told me to sit down
Then they swam
I was wearing a bloody crown
The sea was too deep
That's why they swam
O Jacob FATHER of Isaac
'n' he held onto me
The State muscle came
All Disco Blue Dancing
Strapped me Hard
On the bed
Strapped me hard
Nothin worth said

Excellent contemporary discription, yet not so contemorary that one cannot see the struggle of the writers painful encounter. One of your best writings, I think.
Thank you for posting this. I have read this piece several times-each time with more clarity.
