goodnight you
goodnight me
goodnight to the monkeys that once hung from our acacia trees
goodnight store
goodnight oil
goodnight to the insane inhabitants of the city snorting lines off tinfoil
goodnight you
goodnight thee
goodnight to the crowds who were wary of hanging bureaucrats from elm trees
goodnight dance
goodnight you
goodnight to designer pants rich assholes wore
goodnight to cheating and doping Lance Armstrong who proved that drugs could make you famous
goodnight bow tie
goodnight pumpkin pie
good night Beauty
good night Temperance and Justice
good night to the fool old men who thought they were saavy enough to run the blood of those things known as countries
goodnight thee
goodnight thimble
goodnight spool of thread
goodnight to the nice knights in their armored cars
who killed rather than bled
goodnight shopping mall
goodnight age old curse
goodnight to the man who charged my dead brother for his hearse
goodnight seas of change
goodnight tax plans that got unfairly rearranged
goodnight to the dope who huffed gas and worked his fingers to the scarlet bone
goodnight hope
goodnight relief
goodnight sense of terror so awful
that it makes it hard to get to sleep
goodnight you, goodnight thee
before we part i hope you were Good and Beautiful
as opposed to invoking wavering darkness so awful that they gave thee a Name
goodnight God
goodnight Cape Cod
goodnight cover used to lull us into a soft sense of complacency at the culmination of false ends
goodnight nuclear bombs
goodnight bombshell
goodnight to the cats who felt that this place
was some kind of hell
goodnight sea shell
goodnight room
goodnight to children's books so colorful
that they inspired senses of gloom
goodnight bride
goodnight groom
goodnight dream of a future
as fine as the moon
