When I Die, Bury Me Not On The Rocky Road
When I die, bury me not on the rocky road
For my lifeless body will be fed to crows
Each bit of skin eaten slowly, day by day
Until all but my bones have been unclothed.
When I die, bury me not on the mountain high
For the finest land will be at my view
The land of which my ancestors grew
And I am not worthy of such a beautiful sky.
When I die, bury me not where the sand meets the water
Where the green grass ceases to grow
For the waves will have me pecked and slaughtered
Until the God above takes away the watery rows.
When I die, bury me not in the trees of sage
As branches reach over my ribcage
Growing vines of spiked long mirth
And nature takes me into its Earth.

Six feet above water
Six feet under par
Twenty years surprised her
Amongst the quicket little stars !
Two feet beneath the surface
One beneath the soul
Twelve above the heart
Crafted from earthly gold.
Consider what would happen
To a damsel in dismay
Of fear and trembling wonderfully
Of her step to be light and gay
A cricket cap upon her hair
In the sorrowful evening gray !
Twas much of once a worry
What would happen, under par
Beneath the pandemonium’s walls
Beneath the tribal stars
Much yearns to be taken
From the step, last week’s array
For the cricket cap on her head
And her step to be light and gay !
are we to dine in the eternal mind
of sacred ingenuity ?
these seats in which our souls entwine
to speak the language of floral fluency?
at a loss, we stare round the bar
frantically at auburn stars
to seek the everlasting love
the love of which cannot undress.
veils of fiery violet craft
keep us from our rising yearn
to source the evil that we learn
in finding us, our homemade raft.
