Tombstone's Lament
. For so long the ground has warped
. depressed about my frost frozen feet
. For so long the sunlight
. has not glazed
.within the R E S T of trees and
.roots deep infertile om
.For so long IN solitude did I
. find sleep uncared for
. within the P E A C E of the church
.yards keep undisturbed
.For so long not until this
.night regret did inward
.seep to me and mourn
. within the ground a old
. soul lies asleep alone.
.For so long but now it’s
.~Hall-o-ween and I may rise again to moan.~
.~ For within the grave nothings as it seems ~
/////////////and there is no going home.///////////
