i wasnt here on the anniversary of her passing, so i give now.
Ode to Mary Kelly
by A. Normal
Dark city sidewalks
breed soft parades
scattered figures
play a strange charade
I hear her singing from down the way
A lovely sad serenade
Her red hair
her fair skin
Sweet the troubles of the soothing gin
She let him in
The angels wept
cold tears of rain
But he just smiled
and smiled again
I see him standing
by the broken pane
From Hell he is
and come again
Her warm eyes
her good heart
She was kindness
in an unkind part
Shes a dark star
The fire glowed out
its lonely light
from the courtyard
of the night
and when it died
the devils sight
beheld a bird
on heavens flight
Mary Kelly
Sweet Soul
over green fields
white clouds roll
over Ireland
white clouds roll
