salvation army rejects

Your open closet
is a testament
to a world lost
but not forgotten
Records on vinyl--
Elvis Costello, Guttermouth,
John Denver, Bruce Springsteen,
and Hank Williams
They are shadows
stuck to us
memories full of pop and hiss
Salvation Army rejects
parts of our souls
lost and packed away
Well I for one
cry for revolution
of music abandoned
music restrained, music contained
Follow the songs
flip them gently
they are a pied piper
Whatever you want
you will find
just follow the fever
in your mind
What you need
you will find here
laid away
for a rainy day.
