One Ton Angel

I've got this one ton angel
who says, “It’s up to you.”
And I say, “That’s no help.
What kind of angel are you?”

“The worst,” he says.

“Get out of here angel!”

I bring the match up and light
the whole brown earth of Kentucky
on fire and suck it down and breath it out
and feel like I shouldn’t.
