"Broken Man's Blues"
Ken Anderson, 12 January, 2012

So many fistfights,
And all the "things"
They did to me......

So dead, but still alive.
They're all in a rush to
Get in line.

The stone of ancient times made him feel a deep sense of peace, partly from the incense that kept burning aloft his head, as well as the flowers that draped across the floor and clung against the walls in small piles of memoriam.
