I'm scared a lonely. Never see my son, <br />easy be not to see anyone, <br />combers out to sea <br />know they're goin somewhere but not me. <br />Got a little poison, got a little gun, <br />I'm scared a lonely. <br /> <br />I'm scared a only one thing, which is me, <br />from othering I don't take nothin, see, <br />for any hound dog's sake. <br />But this is where I livin, where I rake <br />my leaves and cop my promise, this' where we <br />cry oursel's awake. <br /> <br />Wishin was dyin but I gotta make <br />it all this way to that bed on these feet <br />where peoples said to meet. <br />Maybe but even if I see my son <br />forever never, get back on the take, <br />free, black & forty-one.<br /><br />John Berryman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dream-song-40-i-m-scared-a-lonely-never-see-my-s/
