Back Again
the plane
flew low
in this
small town
I know
where the
mall
was small
when i was
and they called it
Village
for years
and years
and years
then somebody
had a bright idea
to call it
Colonial …
and I forget the rest
but it never
took
so they changed it
back to
Village
but it didn’t stick
so they came up with …
Auburn
as in the university
and now
it’s big and bright
catalog stripes
but still
no books
like it used to be
across from toys
next to Sears
gone is Sears
got the toys back
and took the Dollar out
but left the books
to Millions and Hastings
maybe they jest
haven’t gotten around
to restoring
lost and found
in The Village
