Flour and Sweat

They erased his name at the bakery
A grave revision of this street’s history
I’m afraid in time people will forget
His inspiring story made of flour and sweat

He was a legend, he’s our pioneer
This blasphemy from the mutineers
His children and grand don’t deserve his glory
Six feet under, he’ll be joined by his story
