Mrs.
Gowanus
By (H+) M.S.G.
(from the archives)

Mrs.
Gowanus, the line between us is so fine
What makes people act the way they do?
Mrs.
Gowanus, this bar will be forever ours
Why did you have to leave us so soon?
It couldn’t have been the right time
It couldn’t have been so soon
Mrs.
Gowanus, the lines between us are so fine
What secrets do you hide?
What futures can you tell me?
Looking into the cup you hold
Mrs.
Gowanus, are you really so old,
That you alone know,
When the truth becomes lies,
Through the passage of time?
Mrs.
Gowanus, why are you singing to the stones?
Do they tell you what you need to know?
Our seats are so far away
Mrs.
Gowanus, the line between us is so fine
What makes people act the way they do?
Mrs.
Gowanus, are we really losing you?
