Candy Corn

bless you
bless our victorious war
i pray for you
blood and candy mixing on
the floor
i close your eyes

strings of candy corns

a string of pearls
a candy for each day
each one breathes memories
in a hollow man who says,
'i hear a voice'

strings of candy corns

all silhouettes
walk in front of me
they fear your face
when around their necks
i place these candy beads

strings of candy corn
