I’M CORPSE
esspeecee … 07.07.09.
I’m corpse
Smothered by
Grieve shrouded lone isle
Open lid of coffin
In dousing delight of air
Air hunger I’ll allay.
I’m corpse
Sorrows of fellow sparrow
Burnt to third degree
Flaming like fire
Drench me in
Gush of tears from clouds
Quench to drizzle out me.
I’m corpse
Ever-rest like Mt. Everest
Want to spin like electron
Sorry!
My legs are doped by death.
I’m corpse
Mute like vast sky, trying to
Sing sorrows of dying star
Sorry!
Tongue is lulled by death.
I’m corpse
Longing to exude love
Lying pent up inside
Sorry!
My un-voided heart
Hushed up by hug of death.
Better,
Leave me alone
To be petrified in
Earth-womb’s refuse
With musty fragrance of sod.
