With its white villas glittering on the sides of its green hills,
And as the tourist gases thereon with joy his heart fills.

the private office of the grave, 
ceased excreting, made corpse gases 

all while liana'd in tubes

I also hear when I lay lipless 
and far away I was anointed 
first by a mild metaphoric church
