Daniel Johnston Personified Poem by Robert Rorabeck
Daniel Johnston Personified
Before I go to sleep
Your songs lay like
2by4s on the rainy
Earth. I gather them
Up in stacks to make
A-frames for Fireworks
Signs on July 4th—
Your colors are as
Bright as everything
And down the street
Under a sad cloud,
You have built a house
For her from your lips,
You have breathed lonely
See-through children
Into her, playing in
The front yard on the
Rainy earth—
Some things last a
Long time…
