ten twenty seven zero eight (10/27/08) 6.39 a-m
E MajorE A2
made aware of the date by a phone call from my dad
E MajorE A2
he said son theres been reports of a fire in your neighbourhood
E MajorE A2
the television shows the news of a building as it burns
E MajorE A2
E MajorE A2
split the blinds again and look at the day across the fire (?)
E MajorE A2
the myriad apartments lighting up the sky
E MajorE
up the sky
A2 D MajorD E MajorE
marion says goodbye ed jackson
A2 D MajorD E MajorE
marion says goodbye ed jackson
later on the day I went walking by
there been reports that a man had been burned inside
the last resident of the marion
had taken its own life
his eviction notice
was for 6pm that night
there'd been plans to turn out the marion(?)
felt kind of humiliating (?)
but 89 year old jackson clearly had other plans
other plans
marion says goodby ed jackson
marion says goodby ed jackson
