Quote-A-Thon

[sleepyjeff]

"I can’t look
At the road rising on highway one
Where the tears of the tangi go on and on
A pagan power
United now
Christmas has gone

But you can see
Along the hard shoulder where the shrines should be
Where a soul departed the flower of a memory
An empty stretch
Where bone and flesh
Met with machine"
