Written folowing a drive through Lamesa with Thom and the connversation we had.

15.04.11 -49) Affluence, influence in the air

Desolation, dust despair

Neat gardens, lawns so tame

A Streetaway it’s not the same

Broken down cars on the side of the street

Strong roofs neatly slated

Collapsed roofs before the storm abated

In every town what ever its glory

Affluence despair tell both sides of the story
