Won't you please walk with me
For part of the way
A solemn egg of death
Rolling on the road
In a box beneath the bed
A golden hand
Lovers exhausted from love
In true love renewed
The veil rent in twain
Open the graves
A particle of war
Slips under the door
Won't you please stay with me
Until you must return
They said this day would come
It has come and gone
The trees bear flesh from seed
The soil heaves
Shadows of birds in flight
Dapple your face at twilight
Won't you please carry me
Carry me down
All fear congeals in a mound
It does not make a sound
No music to be found
