A Reckoning
Michael Thomas Kinsella
This suitcase still smells like the thrift store I saved it from
Big enough to hold all my shit and then some at twenty-one
But now in my 40s I travel with much more dirty laundry
Hundreds of hotel rooms from Shanghai to the Falls of Sioux know me better than you do
I can't believe I let your grief rewrite my youth
I've doubled the devil and changed my name
I lost a limb and live with the pain
If I get back to Sioux Falls there's gonna be a reckoning"
