Lion, Tinman And Scarecrow

Rating: 5.0


lion, tinman and scarecrow:
was I ever really with you?
did I really wear those shoes?

I wonder if you think of me
and where you landed
if you landed
when your own storms were
brewed-

could we ever do again
what we did then
believing in everything as it lay before

God in our pocket
on a golden road-

so close to the emerald door
