Poem 006 Have you seen so many people

Have you seen so many people, hanging around in bars?
locked in faces, neon light, no shadows from the stars
Have you seen so many people, drifting through the town
drinking up, another cup and trying not to drown

Feet are slow, the damage high and sing a song, of days gone by
news is bad, so glasses high and sing a song, of dreams goodbye

Have you seen so many people, whose leaves have turned to gold?
slowly fading, from spring to fall.  still hiding from the cold
Have you seen so many people, when looking from above
who drink and dance, another song, just play at making love

Feet are slow, the damage high and sing a song, of days gone by
news is bad, so glasses high and sing a song, of dreams goodbye
