CYNTHIA
Anna Huckabee Tull
Childlike Beauty
Oceans and parties and dancing on the lawn and nothing for me
That feels like any kind of memory of this
Black and white photographs
Trolley rides and exercise and bathing caps
And nothing ever kept any kind of memory to miss
Cynthia, where you gone off to?
La la la la
Passion, Justice
Generous, you embraced the defectors (like us)
And nothing ever stuck with any kind of permanency
Cynthia, here you gone off to?
La la la la
Madness, Intimacy
Frightened and followed and screaming, with Deadly Accuracy
You raged against oppression; you killed the king!
While you sat in the back seat with your child-like, child-like
Singing (la la la la)
Where you gone off to? I could almost reach you
Where you gone off to? I almost loved you
Where you gone off to, Cynthia?
Oh, I loved you
