    Bury the hatchet, I always say

     We’ve enough firewood in the hallway

   The day bitter cold
     the wind whipping, raw

   A blessing nonetheless
     'twas my mother-in-law

from the sheeting rain
umbrellas circle the hearse..
in twos
they slowly depart

Funereal

Come with me o thee, 
to my grave and reach,
for my ecstasy deceased,
take my eyes and see,
my ashes and feel,
gravity of my soul and preach,
kindness and passion meet,
your greatness my plea,
blind me light come walk with me, 
alter me please, destroy the devil in me,
carry me angel, fly with me,
away to infinity,
discover uncharted horizons and feel,
restless in the vastness you reel,
burn me fire, melt with me,
vaporize veins, surprise me,
zero me radiance, die with me,
fade away shining star....shine in me.

huddled together
from the sheeting rain
the unbrellas mob the hearse-
then in twos
slowly separate
