Moonshine

Took a fall from a windy height
told you to hold on tight
on through to trip over plywood
tried going back as if you could
grass wasn't enough to stop it
tore up, and tore up good.

Hey! watch your head on that root
just stay still
until
I can find some help
let your eyes adjust to the dark
no good to holler and yelp.
It's only a half mile down Morgan's creek
let me run, gotta run
slip away past summertime
branch water and blackberry wine
who could know? no one.

Guess you're stuck
I see the angels frown
I'll send your moonshine
down.
