Echoes Of Ashes
Mississipi, come to me!
Sad Missouri, hence!
Kansas prompts a reverie
Pennsylvania's dense
And knotted history
So long in the tying
Baffles the consistory
For want of trying
On a sudden, run at me!
Hoist your sharpened tusk
Anent an appendectomy
In out-of-date sub fusc
From Grandma's dressing room
Wafts the smell of frying
A hint of capsicum
Chastens the dying
