Dead Alive

Mourned to be the one - To wake - To live - To see - To walk - Alive but dead - Days by day, my oasis lives by the colour of night - Energies of the living, absorbed - To live in the between of dead - Peace to be found, the yard where we spade the graves - Where tombs act the way of stones - The dead of the flowers, vase the portraitof a future to be - Flesh to earth, invested to be inverted - Still born - Aged we pass to birth - To be boned - To die in death
