He wept as he drove up to Lightnin Flat
Wiped his boots on the Twist welcome mat

The man my son loved, come in, baked some pies.
Thank you Heath and Jake for showing us Ennis and Jack,  teaching us how much they loved one another.

His face so sad, the expression she read.

She knew they were lovers. It was just so sad.
