Long Way Down — But That’s Not What Shawn Said

BUT THAT’S NOT WHAT SHAWN SAID.

Shawn always said

our dad was killed

for killing the man who killed our uncle.

Said he was at a pay

phone, probably talking

to Mom, when a guy walked up on him,

put pistol to head,

asked him if he knew a

guy who went by Gee.

Don’t know what Pop said.

But that was the end of that story.
