about

Indiana has a rocky past. Industry left. Our governor's made terrible choices. But I love it. It adopted me as a son and now it's home. I believe in it.

lyrics

From the salvage yard, there are two black dogs who run
through the post-harvest fields of winter wheat as stalks
running on last legs

From the GM plant and the empty storefronts’ lull
all the finches, quick, are undressed inside their song
of a sad place to love

Well the houses are matchsticks after everyone left
but the soil is good and we’re not dead yet

Open up the motorbike/burning down the turnpike
Perfect lines, effortless

Keep me in your hidden thoughts/where every road that ever crossed
had council held with the snow/resting easy—this is home


This is home

With the husk of Delco heavy in the loom
will there always be as many empty rooms
or eyes?
