For God's eyes will see, will catch, and will hold. This glorious day to squeeze, save, and shelve in dandelion wine, fermented, distilled, stocked. Basement crypt will shelter, protect , and secure deep joy. Preserve, keep, lock. Closest friend farewells, moves, and is gone.
Last witness is silenced, stopped, stilled.
Fallen storyman gasps, passes, and dies. The Green Machine struck, hit, killed. Fun rides are finished, concluded, have ceased. But the final ride is ridden, finished, completed. Last streetcar retired, removed, replaced.
