Athens

As if we were just

old friends you'd ask,

            How are you baby?

and I would reply,

            It won't stop raining.

You'd want to know,

if time ever mends?

and I'd tell you,

that time alone

brought Babylon

to her knees.

Then you'd ask if maybe,

I missed the fever

that came with the North wind?

and although I've missed it greatly,

I'll answer plainly,

that I no longer care

for such silly sins.
