we're on the same plane
this 24th
and she is bound for home
from the
u.s. of a.
in the state of colorado
to Dipolog
in Miputak
her dad just died.
her husband had to stay
without work
there is no pay
and they need the money
for daughter's
rehab....
merry christmas cindy
i know it will be hard
pretty hard
merry christmas just the
same Cindy
be happy
look around you and
be sensitive
to all the other lonely people
in this world
saying: merry merry christmas
everyone
from my family to yours
and to all
(less the hopelessness
a discount for misgivings
adjust a little bit
for all those failures)
the plane has landed
and cindy takes her bag
i wave and she waves back
saying: merry christmas
too.
