Click hereYou pushed me out at ten thousand feet,
smashing my body on the ground, and
then returned and covered me with dirt
intending that I never be found.
You erased me from the family tree
and you never speak my name.
You slammed the door shut on my life
and threw away the key.
You’ve told my baby I was strange, and
that I just disappeared one day.
But come some spring years from now
a farmer will find my bones in a furrow
and there’ll be questions needing answers
and there will be hell to pay then
and I’ll be there to collect the toll.

softsmileabout 13 years agoNow I wish I could curl up cozy and read the whole story, especially what happens after the wife's body is found! :)
May I suggest removing all the "ands", with the exception of the second to last line (or you could probably leave that one out as well):
there will be hell to pay then, and
I'll be there to collect the toll.
