A Jew's Epitaph

Adieu, adieu 
sleeping jewish 
lad,                                    
in a tight-fitting 
earthen robe 
clad.                                  
As ways 
you                 part 
with dainty 
life,                                    
no more 
with          
jealous 
death                   
you shall strive.

How Badly Slept a Weary World

How badly slept a 
weary world,        
at nature's 
routine 
behest, churned.    
A certain 
chilling     quiet 
was 
around,               at 
night to take its 
toll.                                                             
For 'twas but a 
sleeping 
world,                      
asleep with all 
but 'the fairly 
odd':      the 
'mischief-laden' 
creepy 
ones,                  to 
eerie lyrics 
sworn.                                                     
Now leaps out of 
the dark, a blissful 
morn,          afore 
cocooned in a 
twilit urn.    
Thanks to the 
hands 
of dawn so 
luminous,        
apart the veil is 
torn.
