I remember something
Maybe a circus ring
I remember I remember
I wasn't born in December

Why Asa E. Fletcher looks like Harold that is unknown
Why my Father bought a house owned by a guy with the same name as his business partner the answer need not be shown
Why we have 2 family members named Asa and Fletcher too
The answer to all: Its something that we do

I don't know
Maybe its just our Show
It means something bigger than that to the naked eye
Connections from me with the tophat and Bar Guy

It means Kines has known me since I was one
It means that the Cochrans aren't done
It means something more
A legacy on the 4025 Izard Street door

The number 44 shows up here and there
Feels like home going to the Fair
Collecting Walnuts and leaves
The house I was born in in Omaha has Walnut trees

Something about the color red
Father-figure has a TopHat on his head
Red wallpaper in our train car and lots of wood
Just like the walls near the inner steps of home and wood working in the house and the patch where a tree once stood

I remember something and people who were my family and my friends
The father-figure and mother-figure would be there for me and defend
The wainscoting feels like deja-vu but I don't believe that or in coincidence of that sort
An early interest in dance was me reaching for my routes to my Mother who can contort

Why does this house have wainscoting in the basement
And with the other people the basement is where i got sent
The homes in the Omaha neighborhood had wainscoting boards and walls
Like the cattlemen's bar we went after the merry go round collapsed and the center pole falls

I remember something
I remember
I think Mom was born in December
Something I remember
