The broken down houses sing the blues as they slowly fall away. 

I notice the way the roof is sinking in

The windows have bullet holes 

to match the holes in the hearts of those that live there. 

The way the door is coming off the hinges 

and the porch stairs are splintering at the seams. 

The way the trees hang lower than all our heads
