M.E.M.

Rex Walls

Past catching up with me,

Not stopping.

Four outstanding kids,

one beautiful wife.

money stays tight.

 

Skedaddle, I tell my kids.

Searching for gold,

losing jobs left and right.

 

Staying strong.

Moving up in the world,

steady money.

Suffer through,

not drinking, can’t do it.

 

Disaster strikes.

Mountain Goat believing in me,

through it all.

But there is a disturbance.

 

Mountain Goat has changed,

Rose Mary is different,

Lori now a new young woman.

Everyone has changed.

 

I can’t keep up.

I’m gone,

past caught up with me.
