Dusty Ceremonial Jacket

Every ancient ceremony
Where the old and dusty dance and play
One steps too far out of line
Crush their backs below them and bring their skin to flay
Wild wanton “Why not?”’s
Once before death, something older every day
Makes us fret tomorrow
Wearing these dusty old jackets in the name of yesterday
