Testament

And now to the Abyss I pass
Of that Unfathomable Grass...


1.
Dear relatives and friends, when my last breath
Grows large and free in air, don't call it death --
A word to enrich the undertaker and inspire
His surly art of imitating life; conspire
Against him. Say that my body cannot now

[Hata Bildir]
