oh riverview park
im stopping by before dark
no one there
nothing new to share
houseboats shift through wind
with my jacket tightly pinned
toss a stone in the river
no time to shiver
church bells humming
while my hands are numbing
newport, winston, swisher sweet
all pressed under my two feet
BNSF, it moans and goes
sleeve extended across my nose
no cures, no remedies
for my frozen extremities
