"breakfast with the radley sisters"

Breakfast with the Radley sisters
Unexpected and brief
Like snow fall in the Carolinas
Potatoes, eggs, and onions
Served with coffee, [?], and tea
Mugs along with their fluttering eyelids
Take a picture in the light
Digital first, then film
Pull that pose awhile darlin'

[?] a car to the second hand store
Buy a big red coat
Woke up hungover but you feel like a star now
Yeah, you feel like a star now
Two sunflowers like smiling diamonds
Give a charity
Of the spirit more than the stomach
From their fingertips appears a line that writes eloquently
A poem that marks your surface
So when the night closes in around you like birds of prey's dark wings
There's that poem to guide your purpose

Breakfast with the Radley sisters
Unexpected and brief
Like snowfall in the Carolinas
