Tight knit people
here aren’t quick to let you in
despite the nature
calling you back again and again;
a stubborn people
that’s clearly set in their ways
against a place so
poetic you'd want to live your days.
Church cemeteries
abound across the landscape,
born and raised here
it’s a life they can’t escape,
its nostalgic surroundings
appeal to my senses
but I just can’t stay
in a town with false pretenses.
