Poem - know the prairie never knows/ never forgets

now dead funeral hole next
to an airport

nobody stuck around to see
if your coffin made it in

all the people who you really loved
dead years ago

we should have our life celebration
while alive

but we can't

we mourn but we don't drink anymore
so we drive

we go out miles to where the prairie shows
stand there

son of the midwest

know the prairie never knows
never forgets
