actions speak louder
a pair of deaf kids "ARGUE"
outside the cafe

Outside the cafe
a crowd forms, then runs - guns glare
soon it is high noon

soon it is high noon-
the squeak of a saloon door
on a rusty hinge

Picking at what's left
between her teeth, she smiled big,
good corn, she'll have more

good corn, she'll have more
can't stop, fresh from the garden
did he say, NO FLOSS

did he say no floss
searching through the cabinet
hygiene gone awry

when justice fails us
we can still rely on peace
our last resort: mercy

hope is swept away
no strength against this current
river of anguish

river of anguish
flooding inevitable
drowning all of us

but, jam is sticky!
door slams, feet stomp childishly
the loud girl protests

at last there is peace
children tucked safely in bed
time to pour the wine
