James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Elegy

Fleshly Dead While Yet Spiritually Alive-

I was alive laid in my bed
 I've risen yet asleep 
I'm dead asleep yeah
 I laid in this coffinbound eyes glued shut
My  lips mouth closed glued, sewed up
Somebody lead
Same body fled
I rise not I'm still birth
I'm born I'm dead 
 I am still birth I'm born I fled
 I'm dead yet I'm spiritually alive
