Where
does anyone
know
where the water went
where the dog buried his bone
where the people go after it’s over
where the story goes after it’s written
where the watch went after it stopped ticking
where the pool goes after it’s drained and buried
where the song ends after the singer begins
where the house stands after life has left
where the stuff’s taken after nobody wants it
where the voices fall when the ears are small
where the dishes were served
where the dishes were stored
where the dreams went
when the dreams
were ignored
