keith’s birthday

[verse]
hey, today’s my brother’s birthday
how the f-ck you celebrate it when he’s dead?
buried in a dusty little plot in southeast
65th near tenino keith rest in peace
and me? i’m on the opposite coast
trying to carve a life out of a slice of burnt toast
google mapped his grave on his special day
ashes to ashes, dust all blown away
fair to say i’m the only person thinking of him
normally on this day i would call mom
but she p-ssed last fall so it’s on me
no pressure shop as usual remain calm
and i don’t know light a candle or something
i got a couple votives from the grocery store
i’d pour out some beer but i don’t drink
play his bob dylan records but the vinyl stinks
mildew spills through my open nose
they said it was an accident case opened closed
people clean guns, sometimes they pop
but two shots by accident seems like a lot
can’t say “suicide” that touches nerves
and that stirs up emotions most folks reserve
for intimate company and quiet times
so is it f-cked up i put it in a rhyme?
well who cares? who dares say what they feel?
anything but the truth for m-ss appeal
well i don’t sell sh-t for records so there’s nothing to lose
one of the real ones, son don’t get it confused
it’s true blues stew and invade my moods
could wear ‘em on my arm in a few tattoos
might post ‘em on twitter but it just seems weak
internet memorials, name something more cheap
i accept i neglect my family’s past
he dies when i die ‘cause i’m the last
not the last who’s alive but the last who cares
the last one to see his grave or tell you if and where
go there on one of these rainy days
65th twists around into an old driveway
there’s a sh-tty little house on a sh-tty little yard
and sh-tty little dog on guard
and it barks and it whines and it bares its teeth
that’s dog speak telling you to “keep it brief”
don’t gotta tell me twice there’s nothing nice here
nothing that acknowledges or celebrates life here
but i come ‘cause one day i’ll go too
and maybe i deny what i know to be true
that a light that shines bright means nothing if you missed it
may as well never have existed
