Gifts For The Earth

I imagine the gracious

Benevolent, rich ritual of Death

Grave and porcelain

With baby blue lips and pale pink eyes

Descending toward me

The gracious ritual

Grave and porcelain

Descending toward me

Her glowing hands cradled

At my head and knees

Submerging me into waves of icy seas

I imagine

I imagine the end

I imagine

I imagine the end

I imagine the gracious

Benevolent, rich ritual of Death

Grave and porcelain

With baby blue lips and pale pink eyes

Descending

Her glowing hands cradled

At my head and knees

Submerging me into waves of icy seas

I imagine

I imagine the end

I imagine

I imagine the end

In the dark

Further downward so that I can rest

Cocooned by the heat of the ocean floor

In the dark

Ocean floor

In the dark

My flesh to disintegrate into consumption

My flesh to disintegrate into consumption

For the earth

For the earth

For the earth

For the earth
