Death

A corpse in a coffin Like a turtle in a shell A torched arm breaks Like a slice in a bell A cough in the wind A mouth draining dread Sea running free Grass tinted red Moon cuts the morning Stars dance today Rain whipping down Shoes slip away Scoop out the dirt Tear open the ground Catch a falling tear Shake it off, without a sound Stand on the snow Lean in real close Whistle for an answer Turn around and choke Crawl over to your car and zip through the sun The night has boiled over The deed is done
