First Light

First Light.

Jesus Saves, in “black& white”, the only
Neon light in town where darkness descended
Long before the day was over, those who
Worked in a factory never saw the sun before
April. No cafés, no bars, we were a reading
Proletariat didn’t bother much about Mr. Saves.

His name is still there, now in bright colours,
Green, yellow and pious pink, the competition
Is hard these days and there are many bars and
Diners, but I remember the name with fondness,
It did lit up the night, as seen from the skylight
On our the attic, when darkness no ending had
