i might have done this one before, i don't know, because it's an oldy
susan
coal dust in their eyes
deep into the
earth's surface they go
trying to reach
what they find below
coal dust in their eyes
never seeing
the daytime sky
these workers
of yesterday
coal dust in
their eyes
deeper and deeper
they go
into the dark caves
generation
after generation
without hesitation
coal dust in
their eyes
not long
were the lives
in teh cave
and the hives
giving more and more
coal dust in their eyes
in the day they
went down
in the dusk
they cam back
covered in soot
coal dust in their eyes
teh workers of
the deep
these images
i want to keep
the lights on
their heads
as they put
their weary bodies
to bed
coal dust in
their eyes
depe below the
surface they
would go
to keep the flow
all day and
into the night
coal dust in
their eyes
many mines are
now closed
but the memory lingers
