Hey John,

Would you consider an experiment here: generally reversing the order of lines? I think it would lead to a more intriguing piece. I'll give an idea below, and see what you think. It may not suit what you want for the poem.

All the best,

Trev

To hear a short sermon made faint by a slight grief. [bold = delete]
A few silent people waited in the small church.
Too fresh to say goodbye to, this house,
that doesn’t fit the neighborhood,
I have to turn around and drive...

...The little street was called Sycamore.
