April Draped in Orange

She dreamt thru the pain an april draped in orange
You know he never hit the same place twice
The ring on his finger, spoke not of protection but of weakening inhibitions
Over on Eleventh Street just 5 doors down
Fades the memory of the remains of a girl and though eventually
They took him downtown 'n' finger-printed him for it
No professional beard could ever return her crown

No soft embrace, as tears stream in profile
June's all grey again

She lives in hope of seeing april draped in orange
You know she never eats the same thing twice
Faded tattoos on her fingers, coded hints on navigating her favourite intersections
Behind her dangerous angles and confetti eyelids
There remains the memory of a girl, it's just a memory
